Actors - Grandma

Getting the actress to play 'Grandma Dot' was very difficult as all of the amateur dramatic societies that we contacted had not got back in touch with us and there was only a week left until we had planned to shoot.

However, I got in contact with a woman named Grace Stead through one of our tutors, as she runs a over 50's drama project.

After then speaking to a number of different people I then managed to secure an actress for the role of 'Grandma'. Her name is Brenda Bell and she is very enthusiastic about taking part in this film. As she doesn't have an email address I will be sending her a copy of the script via post and will keep her up to date with everything via telephone.

Unfortunately on the Wednesday before the shoot, I received a call from Brenda saying that she was unwell and so would therefore not be able to take part in our film. Luckily I managed to get into contact with another actress who was willing to play the role of 'Grandma'.

The new actresses name is Mary Newey and she is very excited to take part in our film. However, she is only available to film on the Sunday, meaning that we will be filming Chelsea and Sarah's scenes on Saturday 12th April and Mary and Chelsea's scene on Sunday 13th. Below is a picture of the actress.
