Meet the Cast - Louise Gracey / Aelgyva

Louise works as Marketing & Sponsorship Coordinator and Executive Officer for a local bank. She loves performing on stage mainly, this is the first Podcast she has ever done, but she did do another shortly after this, Sherlock Holmes with Someone New theatre Company.
She played The Grand High Witch earlier this year in 'The Witches' by Roald Dahl for Encore Theatre Company (community theatre) with both of her daughters. She played Pamela Willey in 'Out of Order' by Ray Cooney for Mordialloc theatre Company (community theatre) and Farmer Bean in 'Fantastic Mr Fox" also for Encore Theatre Company.

"I am originally from the North East of England and have been living in Melbourne for 23 years now. I'm a single Mum of two incredible daughters who are both performers too, Jess is 16 and Emma 8 and they are the best people in my life, I feel honoured to be their Mum. I only started acting in local community theatre a few years ago as I'd kind of lost myself to be honest, so I'm really new to this but have loved every role I've taken on so far and really hope I can do more. I'd love to get paid to do this work but in the meantime anything I do is an absolute bonus, it allows me to be someone else and to escape into a completely different person. I miss home and my family there, not sure when I'll be able to get there again with the current situation but I'm hopeful everything will work out and I can provide my girls with the life they deserve."

Sophie is an actress and voice artist. Currently appearing in Howard Ford horror movie ‘The Lockdown Hauntings’ (East Asian theatrical release now showing, USA release end of 2021) and animation series ‘Lemon Drop Falls’. She will be touring with Lantern Light Theatre Company in Autumn 2021 in ‘Number Two Melrose Square’ and ‘The Fall of the House of Usher.’

“Our relationship with authority and the people who rule us has always been turbulent. It feels so now, more than ever. We now have a democracy, but our elected officials make decisions which often feel out of our control and contrary to our wishes. What then do we do? How do we object? How do we make our voices heard? We are asking ourselves these questions and using the tools we have available to us - social media, media, street protest. For Cynewyn, for the Saxons, for the Medievals, there was no twitter, no Facebook, no TikTok. So she used what she did have available to her - sewing, embroidery and the Bayeaux Tapestry.”

It is the best thing I have ever done. It is scary, hard-work and sometimes painful, but also the most extraordinary adventure I have ever been on! Follow that voice, do what you want to do, and make the most of it."

Meet the Cast – Winter Foenander / Siward of Gloucester

Winter is a stand-up comedian who recently gave his voice to the audio drama Dilty Moss, a dystopian nightmare where his character has to save his bestfriend from dying.

« When you just start doing this sort of stuff, everyone tells you to go for it. That’s fine, IF you’ve been trained a little bit... At the beginning, many years ago, I went out, with all the confidence, none of the skills, for an audition for a very famous cola company. We had to do a fight scene. The first guy had experience in boxing, I’ve got ten years in Shotokan karate, so I had to do a sequence of moves and that went fine. But the last guy on this bill, if you like, had to do the same thing. Before he started, he asked if I minded him taking off his shirt. He was built like the incredible Hulk. The guy had muscles where I’ve never seen muscles before. Then, he did all these spinnings and horizontal moves. I was like, this is incredible ! I don’t know why I stayed, but I watched anyway. We knew at this stage who got the part, but we had a last piece to do for the camera. I had no experience in acting or anything like that, meaning no experience in visualizing. The line was « Be gone, evil one ». We had to visualize a can of coke in front of us and say the line. I put everything into it ! Before I knew it, my interpretation made me cross my eyes, and they made me do it many, many times. So there is a tape out there, of me, doing cross eyes for a cola company. That’s the lesson : before you get into it, get a bit of experience, few acting classes, put the safety nest on you first ! »
