Casting Announced for SCRIBBLE, Winner of the 2017 Assembly Roxy Theatre (Art) Award Image

The creative team of Scribble are delighted to announce that Edinburgh-based actor and graduate of Edinburgh Napier University, Alan Mackenzie, has joined their production in the lead role of Ross.

Alan's previous theatre credits include Movie Time (Mull Theatre), Friends Electric (Visible Fictions), and most recently Sea Wall (Heroes Theatre) at the New Diorama Theatre as part of the Incoming Festival. Alan also took on the title role in Hamlet at Bard In The Botanics in 2014.

Written by Andy Edwards and directed by Amy Gilmartin, Scribble is a two-hander about mental health. The production reunites Alan and Amy who have previously worked together on Globophobia, a production staged in 2013 by Urban Fox Theatre Company.

Taking an innovative and ambitious approach to casting, the supporting role will be played be a different actor each performance, who will be performing the script unseen for the first time.

For the creative team this approach has two aims: firstly to explore the changing nature of mental health on a daily basis, and secondly to represent the range of people affected by mental health problems across society by working with actors from a variety of backgrounds. The performance will be different every day because our mental health can be different every day.
