Cast

To play the main protagonist, Rosie, we have chosen a girl called Rosie Goddard.  We asked her to play the part as she is an experienced actress and has the look of a natural and innocent young woman.  She will portray this character to be a 20 something year old who is confused by the antagonist of the film.  Rosie Goddard has been involved in various productions including 'The Knife that Killed Me', a crime thriller starring well-known British Actors.

To play the antagonist, Evylyn Crick, we first decided to search for an older woman to play her. We emailed a number of Amateur Dramatics Societies in the area to see if they had any willing volunteers to get involved with our production.  

"We are 4 A level students from Bacup and Rawtenstall Grammar School producing a thriller trailer.  In this trailer we hoped to have and experienced actor to play the part of and older woman who will act as the villain.  One menber of our group has visited your theatre and speaks highly of your productions.  We would appreciate if you could get back to us as we hope to start filming within the next upcoming weeks.  There would be no speaking in the part just practical acting, so it would not take up a lot of time to rehearse.  We could send scripts at a later date for a better understanding.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Frankie, Gabby, Alexia and Rosie." - The email we sent to the AMS.

We were unsuccessful in doing this so instead we have asked a girl called Layla to play the part which she has agreed to do. She is a good friend of the group and also achieved A* at GCSE in drama. She has performed in a number of stage productions so we felt we could reply on her. We will give her make up in order to age her face.

George Bury has been cast as he too is an experienced actor who is keen to perform. He is an A Level drama student and has agreed to play the part of Rosie’s boyfriend, Craig, who will comfort her throughout the production while she is distressed.

The production will involve a younger and older version of Rosie. Playing the younger version will be Gabby's next door neighbour, Eleni Gregoriou. Her character is 8 years old and has a very similar look to Rosie. Appearance had to be taken into consideration here after casting Rosie's older self as they are both acting as the same person.

Eleni's real mother agreed to play the part of her screen mother. She has no experience however we don't feel this was an issue as her part is only very small. We can also capture a more natural relationship with them actually being mother and daughter.
