Panic.

Less than 8 days until the premiere and we've only gone and lost the leading actor. Bollocks. No actor can surely learn such a script in time for the first performance? Are there actually any actors out there anyway? It's been a real struggle finding a cast for the other Bury Fringe show and that's a month away (I've found three quarters of a cast eventually and am now having to re-write the scripts to work with less people), am really clueless as to what we can do now - this time next week the first performance of the play will be done, but who by? It feels like a really bad dream, and when I wake to realise it's actually reality I'm going to swear a hell of a lot.
