The Cut (Ravenhill), my only stage performance

To finish off my trio of posts on Mark Ravenhill… I had the opportunity to assist John Tiffany in directing a first draft of The Cut, a play Ravenhill wrote for a Paines Plough Wild Lunch series.

They needed an extra (non-speaking) actor for a very very small part of the reading, so I was volunteered! Therefore, I appeared in the Young Vic studio along side Chiwetel Ejiofor (aka Chewie) and Corin Redgrave for most probably the only time on the London stage.

It now looks like The Cut will go on at the Donmar in 2006 directed by Michael Grandage and including Ian McKellen.
