Coincidences...

A bit of early casting news for A Midsummer Night's Dream and for me an uncanny coincidence. I was having a flick through Grazia (yes I have admitted my love for it before) and found this piece about a new spoof reality show, Cast Offs, coming to Channel 4 in November.

Not only does it star one of the cast [Kiruna Stamell as Carrie - there she is below] from our upcoming production of A Midsummer Night's Dream, but it was shot [and so was this photo shoot by the looks of it] partly near to my hometown in North Norfolk. Here are some of the cast on the glorious Holkham Beach. I look forward to shooting the breeze with Kiruna about the delights of the North Norfolk coast when she arrives for rehearsals after Christmas but if you want to see her in action before then tune in to Cast Offs on Channel4 from 24 November....

The North Norfolk coast has desirable as a location for TV and movies alike. Not only is it the location for Kingdom featuring Stephen Fry and Mixed Up North's Celia Imrie, but also Holkham Beach was used in the All Saints video for Pure Shores [soundtrack to the movie The Beach] and it was also the beach used for Gyneth Paltrow's enigmatic walk at the end of Shakespeare in Love.
