Announcing the Flicks Live Script Read of Braindead
Flicks.co.nz and the NZ
International Film Festival are chuffed to announce a unique
one-off free event, a live script read of Kiwi splatter
classic Braindead, written by Stephen
Sinclair, Fran Walsh and Peter Jackson.
No rehearsals. No safety net. No second chances. No entry fee. Just the Braindead script and a live audience at The Wintergarden in Auckland on July 22nd at 7pm.
“Not only am I bloody delighted about the script we’ve got to work from and that Braindead’s writers have allowed us to stage this live read,” says Flicks.co.nz Editor Steve Newall, “I’m also excited about the talented cast that we’ve put together”.
Hosted by Dominic Corry,
the Flicks Live Script Read will give the audience a unique
opportunity to see how actors bring characters to life, with
a cast of familiar faces reading through the script together
for the very first time.
Replicating a feature film
table read, where the written word first comes to life
thanks to the film’s cast, the Flicks Live Script Read
will see a fresh cast step into the familiar
Braindead roles: Tim Batt (2014 Billy T
award nominee), David Farrier (Tall Poppies), Rose Matafeo
(Jono and Ben at 10), Josh Thomson (7 Days) and Kiwi acting
icon Jennifer Ward-Lealand.
"I couldn't be more
excited to be part of this super awesome event” says host
Dominic Corry. “Braindead is one of my
favourite movies, and I can't wait to see what form it will
take on the night."
