UK Theatre Network - For your personal entertainment

From the editor
Hello Friend, hope you had a good week.
The network continues to spread and I'm happy to tell you that we
have our first reviewer in Los Angeles. Look out for Cindy Marie
Jenkins getting off the ground in the coming weeks.
This week I also found out that the BBC/Film London funding will
be given to FOUR of the final ten. Little India has a very good
chance to be one of them. The Microschool is on the 17th
September and Dishad Husain and I will be working with some top
script editors, directors and producers to shape the film, and
prepare for a pitch on the 24th
September.
On
the K-Pax front, I finally found Kevin Spacey. The official route
via his management at William Morris Agency was my chosen
approach and it eventually worked with a bit of follow up over 2
months. The reply was however "we'll pass on this one". So it's
back to the drawing board and brainstorming of potential
actors.
It's all happening. Slowly but surely.
Douglas
