Jessie Cave set to star in London production of 'Breed'
Actress Jessie Cave (Lavender Brown in the Harry Potter series) is set to star in the production of Breed at Theatre503 in London from 21 September - 16 October 2010. A summary of the play, in which Jessie will play the lead Liv, is as follows: Quote:
From the night you were born, puppy, I knew I’d do anything for you.”
Liv is in trouble - her mum’s planning a dog fight, her dad’s getting out of jail, her brother's getting too close to her baby, the police are sniffing around and the pack is closing in. A sharp and savage story of the animals we are and the people we try to be.
| Tickets for the production can be purchased here (020 7978 7040). We will have more on the play, including photos, as they are released. Thanks to JessieCave.com for the tip. UPDATE: A press release has been issued, given more detail about the production: Quote:
As abandoned dogs and disposable cats make headline news, the Olivier Award-winning team at Theatre503 is proud to present BREED – a topical story about a very animal breed of human cruelty.
