Anna Bamford Joins Cast of FREAK WINDS at Old Fitz Theatre

By: Feb. 03, 2015

Anna Bamford, TV Week Logie nominee and star of Channel Ten's hit series Wonderland, will be joining Marshall Napier and Ben O'Toole in the cast of Freak Winds at the Old Fitz Theatre in March.

In a quiet neighbourhood on a dangerously stormy night, brash insurance salesman Henry Crumb invades the home of the reclusive Ernest and his mysterious companion Myra. Although Ernest seems like the perfect patsy, Henry's sales-pitch doesn't go as planned and the evening soon takes a strange and unsettling turn.

Red Line Productions is proud to announce the long awaited revival of Marshall Napier's classic Freak Winds, one of the most celebrated Australian plays in recent years. This gothic thriller is returning to its original home at the Old Fitz Theatre where it first saw life over a decade ago (before going on to a number of highly successful international productions). As in the acclaimed original, Marshall Napier (All My Sons, Cat On a Hot Tin Roof, Love Child, The Moodys) will direct as well as perform, and will be joined by Anna Bamford (Wonderland, Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries) and Ben O'Toole (Love Child, The Water Diviner, Mojo).
