Casting announced for new musical OPERATION JULIE at Aberystwyth Arts Centre

Casting has been announced for Operation Julie, an anarchic new musical that’s going to (prog) rock Wales, opening at Aberystwyth Arts Centre on 30 July.

Written and directed by Geinor Styles, it tells the story of one of the most jaw-dropping true stories ever to come out of Wales and is a co-production between Theatr na nÓg and Aberystwyth Arts Centre, with a two-week run in Aberystwyth from 30 July–13 August, before playing at Theatr Brycheiniog from 24-26 August  and The Lyric Carmarthen from 31 August–2 September.

Breaking Bad collides with The Good Life in a psychedelic true story from the hillsides of rural Wales. It tells the incredible story of the undercover police operation that smashed one of the most extraordinary drug rings the world has ever seen.

The cast is comprised of Joseph Tweedale and Georgina White, who will play the roles of Richard Kemp and Christine Bott. They will be joined by Kieran Bailey, Phylip Harries, Daniel Carter Hope. Caitlin Lavagna, Sion Russel Jones, Steffan Rizzi and Steve Simmonds who will portray Detective Inspector Dick Lee. 

The production features set and costumes by Carl Davies, musical arrangements and direction by Greg Palmer, lighting by Nick Bache and sound by Mike Beer.
