Geraint Wyn Davies participates as Falstaff in the Virtual reading of "Wil", a comedy by Dan Rosen.
Other FK alumni joining him are Colm Feore and Lucy Peacock.

The reading is available for viewing until March 23. To get the access one has to make a donation, which goes to the Actors' Fund.

I bought my ticket and plan to watch it tomorrow.

Here's the Link to the Website.

I watched yesterday - what did you think of it?

I loved it. It was great fun! And amazingly done with all the background sketches and shoving the characters around on the screen. Much more than a mere reading.

Although Ger had only a minor part, the entire cast was great and fun to watch. Loved the Richard III character!

The play was outright funny and original. Loved the carrier pigeons. I just found the ending a bit too obvious.

What did you think of it?

I loved it! A large part because it was in modern rather than old English, so I could follow it more. I knew it was going to be funny, I just couldn't believe how often I laughed! I loved Hamlet, and Ger's Falstaff. Yes, moving the characters around the screen really did add to the story, like you were also watching them on stage. And every time a character died you knew Richard III was around somewhere!!!
