Joining the cast... Amalia Vitale and Sam Clark

We are pleased to announce our final two cast members, Sam Clark and Amalia Vitale.

AMALIA VITALE


Amalia graduated last year from the Birmingham School of Acting, representing the school in her final year at the Carleton Hobbs Awards for radio performance. Since then, she has been involved in a variety of projects, which include playing the principal role in a music video for the band Mr Disfit with Frogg and Peach Productions, and performing in the chorus show ‘The Death of Patroclus’ at the Arcola Theatre at the end of last year. Earlier this year, she has performed and written with the comedy sketch group 1OtherPleaseSpecify with Hurlström co-founder Tom Hurley and she has just finished performing in a co-written piece, ‘Cluedough’, at the Cockpit Theatre. Amalia’s most recent film credits include Pilar in short film ‘Canteen’ and Doris in ‘Consumed’, for Unusuality Productions. This summer, she is off to the Theatre Royal (Bath) to understudy for Jessica in the play ‘Hysteria’, by Terry Johnson.

SAM CLARK

Sam was raised in Jersey, but relocated to London to train as an actor at the Central School of Speech and Drama.  Throughout his training, he performed in a variety of exciting roles, including: Toby Belch (Twelfth Night), Garry Essendine (Present Laughter), Laertes (Hamlet), Follywit (A Mad World – The Thomas Middleton Project), Fat Man (Thin Man/Fat Man) and Marcel (Rememberance of Things Past).  Upon graduating, Sam landed a place in the ensemble of Complicite’s ‘A Dog’s Heart’ at the ENO and went on to be cast in the West End transfer of the National Theatre’s ‘War Horse’, in which he continues to perform through to 2013.  Sam began working with Tom on the early stages of ‘Waiting For Space’ in 2009, performing shorter extracts at CSSD and the Roundhouse.  He is very excited to be able to continue to collaborate on the project in its hour-long format.
