Following our regular catch ups…
From Bad Girls To Cannes:The Nicole Faraday Interview
over the last 4 years it is cool to keep in touch with Nicole and find out her plans.
Hi Nicole
What are you up to this summer?
Helloooo! I will be head judge of Swanage ‘Carnival’s Got Talent’ again this year. During August I am performing in two different plays, so that I can spend time at home with my family.
I am at the Tivoli Theatre in Wimborne playing ‘Ginny’ in ‘Relatively Speaking’ on 10-12th August.
and then in the first rep season the Mowlem Theatre, Swanage, has seen for 25 years playing Daria in The Game’s Afoot by Ken Ludwig at the end of August (25-29). It is the last of the three plays at the Mowlem, occurring this season.
Anything else we can look out for?
My new feature film ‘Ask the Cheat’ in which I play the lead role of Ms Bushnell for TalkingLens Productions opposite Nick Moran, Martin Trenaman and Jeremy Edwards… is due in cinemas (and DVD) in October and premiering at the Venice Film Festival in August.
I also spent some time in the Spring filming a new short film ‘Future’s Past’ in Poole Harbour and surrounds as Reverend Eddowes with local film makers. I was out at Cannes Film Festival again in May, this year, promoting both my feature and another local short I was in ‘Faithless’ starring Sean Gilder, which was filmed all around Dorset with mainly a local cast and crew,and picked up internationally by both Cannes and Girona film festivals.
My Bad Girls episodes are on CBS drama every night again at the moment.
