THE full casting for the Mayflower production of Edward Scissorhands which is on from Tuesday, March 3 to Saturday, March 7 has been announced.
The title role will be played by Dominic North, who will be returning to the role than won him a National Dance Award nomination as Best Male Dancer in 2009.
Making his debut as Edward this season will be Liam Mower who was recently seen in Billy Elliot Live.
Playing Edward’s sweetheart Kim Boggs will be Ashley Shaw and Katy Lowenhoff.
Ashley has played the principal roles of Aurora in Sleeping Beauty, Sugar in Nutcracker and the title role in Cinderella.
Katy has become a popular performer through her performances as Clara in Nutcracker and her created role as “Hibernia” in Sleeping Beauty.
Based on the classic Tim Burton film and featuring the music by Danny Elfman and Terry Davies, it is a love story that tells the bittersweet story of a boy created by a lonely inventor who dies leaving him alone and unfinished.
Left with only scissors for hands, Edward must find his place in a strange suburban world where the well meaning community struggle to see past his appearance to the innocence and gentleness within.
