The ‘rape case of the century’ returns to local theatre, when David Heron’s multi-award winning AGAINST HIS WILL play, opens with a star-studded cast tomorrow, August 18, at the Theatre Place on Haining Road in Kingston.
Among the talented cast is none other than entertainment diva Amelia ‘Milk’ Sewell, who (along with Nadia Khan) will tackle the role of the sultry ‘Gillian Forbes’. Gillian’s seduction of the very married Danny Bryan (played by Peter Lloyd and Jerry Benzwick) propels the lifelong debate of whether a woman can rape a man, and forces her to defend her actions in a court room so dramatic that audiences can’t help but deliver their own verdicts!
AGAINST HIS WILL, which is directed by Douglas Prout, sees Peter Lloyd breaking his haitus from live theatre, to reprise the role of Bryan, and he is joined by Nadean Rawlins who will tackle the role of prosecuting attorney Rachel Robinson. Jean Paul Menou plays defense attorney Lincoln Jacobs, while veteran actress Marguerite Newland handles the role of Judge Buchanan. Young dynamo, Sakina Deer, plays the role of Lloyd’s wife, Heather Bryan.
AGAINST HIS WILL plays at the Theatre Place on Haining Road from Wednesday to Saturday at 8 p.m., and on Sundays at 5 p.m. and 8 p.m.
