Unofficial Playbill – Pinter/PROUST -Part 2

This is a continuation of Part 1, just to provide some background information  on the cast members expected to perform in the Pinter/PROUST program with Richard Armitage, opening ( and closing) Thursday at the 92 St. Y.  You can find Part 1 here.

 Kersti Bryan is an actor who has appeared in major roles on  TV ( Elementary, Drop Dead Diva, Law and Order, Golden Boy) in film,  That’s Life (2009), What It Was (2013)  and in many regional theater productions, some of which garnered her awards nominations.

Samantha Dakin is an American actor who trained in London and has appeared in film,  (Hyde Park on Hudson, Caecilla), on TV ( the voice of Ariela in BBC’s CBeebies show Tree Fu Tom, with David Tennant) and in a BBC serial radio drama of Showboat.

Andrew Fallaize  is a British actor, voice-over artist and communications coach. He has worked extensively in theatre, radio and screen for companies such as the Royal Shakespeare Company, National Theatre,  English Touring Theatre  and most recently in June 2013 off Broadway at 59E59 Theatres in Cornelius by J B Priestley. He has worked with director Di Trevis before in The Workshop.

Michael Villastrigo  is from New Jersey and trained in  England, including with Di Trevis.  He has appeared in regional theater (mostly in leading roles), short films and television pilots. His height varies between 5’9″ and 5’10”, he wears a size 11 shoe and has a baritone voice ( which I am looking forward to hearing).

Annabel Capper is a British actor and  workshop teacher.  She trained at LAMDA and has  appeared in TV series, including Sensitive Skins and East Enders, short films and documentaries, and on stage including One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest(  Nurse Ratchett), readings of Sarah Ruhl’s Passion Play and a 1997 Production of the PROUST screenplay directed by Di Trevis.  Her CV is here and indicates that she is also a hand model. Don’t bother googling her though, because you’ll just come up with links to sites related to

Richard Armitage, a British Actor.

Thus, a running thread throughout a good part of this cast is prior experience with Di Trevis and /or stage work with classical training.
