'Operation Hummingbird,' Actor
Next Door But One

  • Project Details
    Casting an actor for new play, "Operation Hummingbird." Production states: "This play is a conversation across the decades about a sudden family death, realising an opportunity that we all wish we could do at some point in our life; go back and talk to our younger self.

    Taking the key themes from his memoir, The Day the Alien Came, Matt Harper-Hardcastle's new play explores terminal illness, anticipatory grief and the complicated journey of living with loss. This is a 1 act, storytelling-driven, 2-hander.

    This revival is scheduled for May 2023, following a sellout run in 2021. Next Door But One will be touring the production to libraries, theatres and universities in North Yorkshire.

    Audience member review: "Operation Hummingbird" doesn't set out to be a ‘sad’ show, which with the subject matter would have been all too easy. It took grief and showed it in all of its sadness, lightness, frustration and beauty. The natural flow of light and dark, warmth and cool made it the most beautiful piece on family and grief I have ever seen.

    We're an award-winning LGBTQ+ and disability-led theatre company based in York, promoting creative skills and encouraging community cohesion, particularly with those who face barriers to accessing theatre. Our established programme focuses on workshops and performances for and with cohorts of the community with disabilities, mental ill health, those experiencing bereavement, those who are carers and individuals from the LGBTQ+ community. Our activity ranges from workshops to touring performances, training programmes and professional development opportunities."
