Creatures / Actors
The 2016 cast is Pip O'Connell, Ryan Mead, Susannah Donovan, Hugh Parsons and Talia Carlisle.
Wolf is directed by Sam Fisher.
Pip O'Connell (Ali)
Pip, has over the years been involved in theatre, TV and film. Her experience has been a mix of acting, directing, producing, writing and make-up artistry. She has two daughters, Frith and Madeline, who also adore the crazy world of acting and it is not surprising that her cat is an attention seeking drama queen - his name is baby.
Talia Carlisle (Cushla)
Since she can remember, Talia Carlisle has dreamed of travelling the world and making a difference - which is why she joined the journalism industry in 2010. When she's not writing about everyday heroes or reporting from far away places like Greenland, Talia spends her time acting in musical theatre, comedies, operas and more. Always ravenous to try something new, Wolf has provided a great opportunity to sink her teeth into something more sinister and she's savoured the challenge.
Susannah Donovan (Cassie)
Originally from Christchurch, Susannah moved up to Wellington after graduating from Canterbury University with a Bachelor of Arts in English and Theatre. Involved in the Wellington acting community for a number of years, Susannah has performed in the Fringe Festival, as well as appearances in television, film, and short films. Notable theatre credits include the BATS Theatre STAB season of Pandemic, The Playboy of the Western World, and 2015's Victoria University Summer Shakespeare production of Timon of Athens, directed by Brett Adam. Susannah is delighted to be performing in this original work of New Zealand theatre set in her home city.
WOLF A play by Tim Barcode
15 March to 24 March 2016 - BATS Theatre Wellington
Hugh Parsons has come to this production from quake torn Christchurch. His theatre and residential experiences living near where the play is set made him an excellent addition to the cast. He attended Linwood College. Favourite roles have included peasant, Petruccio, evil witch, John F Kennedy, man and perfume maker.
Hugh Parsons (Lee)
Ryan is from very near where this play is set and was in Christchurch for most of the earthquake sequence, so understandably he came to Wellington to go to university. He has considerable stage experience but the call of Hollywood is still on silent.
