Blaxland's Nicole Harwood stars in Ken Ludwig's play Leading Ladies, to be performed by Castle Hill Players.
Leading Ladies follows two hapless English actors, Leo and Jack, down on their luck and travelling through Amish country, performing in community halls.
The money has dried up, there's no work for them in sight and all seems lost. Then Leo reads about a dear old lady whose dying wish is to bequeath her fortune to her two long lost nephews who, by amazing coincidence, grew up in England. After convincing Jack this is a great idea, the two head off to York, Pennsylvania, only to learn the 'nephews' are actually nieces. No problem, Jack and Leo are actors.
Audiences will love 'Maxine' and 'Stephanie' as they present themselves to the York locals. Romantic entanglements and laughs aplenty are on the bill when Castle Hill Players present the latest farce from Ken Ludwig, author of Lend Me a Tenor, Shakespeare in Hollywood and The Game's Afoot.
Harwood graduated from the Australian Institute of Music in 2014 with a Bachelor of Music, and has gone on to study acting in Sydney and Los Angeles.
The play also features Jennifer Leslie from Springwood.
Leading Ladies will show from May 31 to June 22 at The Pavilion Theatre at Castle Hill Showground. Tickets at: www.paviliontheatre.org.au or phone 9634 2929.
