Casting: One for Sorrow
21 Feb 24
When Imogen invites John into her family home following a terrorist attack, they are forced to confront their ethics head-on. He is not what they expected – different to them. Cordelia Lynn’s bitingly funny and tense drama explores the limits of middle-class liberalism across the generational divide. Can they learn to match their morals with their actions?
It was a real privilege to see such a huge number of talented actors audition for One for Sorrow. The talent on display made casting this show very difficult, but I am so grateful for everyone who prepared hard and took on notes so professionally.
We have now put together a wonderful family to take on this very challenging play, which is both funny and emotionally poignant in equal parts. Ingrid and I cannot wait to explore the relationships in this play and help each actor find their unique interpretation of the characters.
