ACCESS: Aidan is in the foreground of the image. He wears a red England football top, with the 'three lions' logo on the front, along with the umbro logo (in white) and the number 10. Around his neck, he wears a yellow dustcloth, tied around like a bandana-style face covering. A silver neck chain pokes out from underneath the dustcloth. Aidan is looking up out of the corner of his eye. Behind him is a big stone wall with the words 'ROYAL COURT' engraved into it in a grey colour.
CAST IN four incels by zahra jassi at 'court's in session' event
26 July 2024
Earlier today, the phenomenally gifted, Phoebe Coop, arranged a meeting with a number of actors, directors and writers all affiliated with the Royal Court Theatre. She told us she had secured the funding and the greenlight from the theatre's artistic team to host a Scratch Night called 'Court's in Session' at the Sloane Square venue and wanted us all to be a part of it. Naturally, I was over the moon!
​
Following this announcement, I was cast as the character 'Eni' (pronounced 'any') in Zahra Jassi's hilarious, superbly written piece, Four Incels.
​
Four Incels follows Eni, Tom, Dick and Harry (yeah... it's a parody by the way) as they hold Millwall FC's merchandise shop hostage. Zahra has so brilliantly taken the mick out of these people and the spoof, comedic nature of the dialogue and interactions had me belly-laughing on receipt of the script.
​
'Court's in Session' takes place at the Royal Court Theatre on Saturday 7th September 2024 at 7pm. FOUR INCELS: Written by Zahra Jassi; Directed by Ollie Harrington; Produced by Phoebe Coop.
