Within the next week or two, the audio-play A Journey Around My Room will be publicly available. My first play as an audio-cast has been a fascinating experience. Journey is a story of self-discovery, solidarity and survival in an age of turmoil. During the recording sessions I had the privilege of working with a stellar cast and the atmosphere was always convivial. The spirit of these enjoyable sessions was captured in a series of interviews between cast members David Sillars, Jill Korn, Lorenzo Novani and myself resulting in conversations sharing our experiences of bringing the play to life. These interviews take the form of a chain reaction: an actor interviews a fellow actor and they subsequently become the interviewee for another actor.
The first of these conversations features actor, David Sillars, being interviewed by director Kenny Burnham. David is an artist and actor with fifty years of experience in theatre, TV, film and radio.

David plays the part of Xavier De Maistre.
