Paul Rapsey's independent film, Desperately Seeking Samuel , has just been jury selected for inclusion in the Alpine Frame Film Festival (Switzerland). The film has already been included in a number of other festivals in Marseille and Montmartre, France; Mallorca, Spain, and Moscow, Russia. It won a merit award in the LGBTQ Unborderered International Film Festval (USA). This is a essentially a dramatic monologue, or rather two monologues starring Paul Rapsey, and Gillian Ormerod; and introducing Katie Yeoman. In a sense, it is an allegory about a decent into "hell" and "resurrection". Paul performed a stage version of the play in Granville Ferry in 2023.
This blog is for the purpose of reporting on past and future shows I have or will be performing in. Since 2019, these plays are monologues that I have written. Theatre on a shoe-string budget requires all the help it can get from social media. I trained as an actor and performed professionally in the 1970s before becoming a lawyer in the 1980s. In the 1990s and early 2000s, I performed occasionally , taking up theatre (monologues) again after my retirement from the practice of law in 2015.
