Bristol's Tobacco Factory Theatres announce casting for Daniel J Carver’s REVEALED
Casting has been announced for the world premiere of Daniel J Carver’s Revealed, which plays at Bristol’s Tobacco Factory Theatres from 22 September-8 October.
Directed by Jay Zorenti-Nakhid, Revealed tackles themes of racism, masculinity, sexuality and mental health in a family drama which plays out against the backdrop of an uprising and an incident in police custody.
The cast, who represent three generations of the same family, includes Everal A Walsh (Rockets and Blue Lights, National Theatre, Royal Exchange Manchester) as Sidney, Dylan Brady (Coronation Street, ITV) as Luther, and the play’s writer Daniel J Carver (Henry VI Rebellion and Wars of the Roses, RSC) as Malcolm.
Director Jay Zorenti-Nakhid said: ‘We are so happy to be announcing this brilliant cast today, in what will be my first production at Tobacco Factory Theatres as Associate Director. We’re particularly thrilled that Everal A Walsh will play our grand-father Sidney, having already workshopped the role at the National Theatre Studio earlier this year. We’re also very excited to welcome the incredible talent that is Dylan Brady, who will play teenager Luther, in his first professional stage performance, after playing Danny in Coronation Street for the last two years. Daniel J Carver and I have been on this journey to get Revealed produced since we started working on it together in 2018. I could not be more excited that Dan will also play the role of Malcolm - son of Sidney and father to Luther - in his own brilliant, moving, and hilarious play.”
