'Patterns in the Sky' - LAST AUDITIONS! – read more...

PATTERNS IN THE SKY

19:30, Fri 11th – Sun 13th September 2026 at ARSENALE DELLA REPUBBLICA DI AMALFI, Amalfi, Italy
Summer Vacation

Content warning (may contain spoilers) Click to expandClick to close

PATTERNS IN THE SKY is a comedy set in Southern Italy, featuring English writer, DAVID, and his gynaecologist wife, ANNE, each believing the other is having an affair.
Enter Italian friends GIOVANNI, LODOVICO and FRANCESCA, to gather the evidence; but they have agendas and deceptions of their own!

With a plot worthy of a Mozart opera, the play is full energy, and intrigue, with a warm appreciation of two cultures. It weaves the subjects of loyalty, mistaken identity and sex into a triumphant, and astonishing finale!

The play is flavoured with unforgettable Italian and English music and songs with the feel good factor of a decaffeinated double expresso, and a belly full of vino (the set overlooks Capri), not worthy of Dante, but great fun! Join the crazy party: let your hair down, celebrate humanity
and laugh.

Come audition for Patterns in the Sky by Peter Mieville. LAST AUDITIONS CONTACT US ASAP. We're looking for 2 female actors and 1 male actor to complete our cast. Rehearsals start on the 27th of June. The play will take place in Amalfi, Italy, during the second week of September. A cross-cultural comedy weaving loyalty, mistaken identity and sex into an astonishing finale!

MAGPIE: 16mm short film

12:00, Fri 29th May – Fri 18th December 2026 at Not applicable
Easter Week 4 to Christmas Vacation

Content warning (may contain spoilers) Click to expandClick to close

Themes of physical illness; implied medical injections and limited and discreet presentation of blood; brief scenes of emotional distress and threat.

MAGPIE (working title) is an eight-to-ten-minute short film about love, illness and about two people plunged between these two poles. We are looking to cast two lead roles (effective co-protagonists) and a third supporting role. Around six to ten extras will be needed to give density to crowd scenes depending on lens choice. The number of supporting actors may be expanded depending on reception from actors. The shooting schedule is three days long and will consist of two days filming in Cambridge and one day at a location three hours from Cambridge via public transport. Filming dates are flexible but the ultimate deadline is to have the film shot, cut and printed by the end of Michaelmas.

For more details, read the full advert or contact Adam Pountney (ajp247@cam.ac.uk) before 26th Jun 2026 12:00.
