Kay Mellor’s The Syndicate opens at Leeds Grand Theatre tomorrow (Thu 18 April) and to celebrate the cast, including Director Gaynor Faye, Samantha Giles (Emmerdale), Brooke Vincent (Coronation Street), and Kay’s grandson, Oliver Anthony, pose for photographs at the venue.
Running until Sun 28 April, The Syndicate is a new stage play based on the hit BBC show by the legendary Leeds playwright. It follows five supermarket employees whose lottery syndicate numbers come in. But will a share of the jackpot make their dreams come true or their nightmares a reality? One thing is for certain… their lives will be changed forever!
The Syndicate cast is completed by Rosa Coduri-Fulford, Jade Golding, William Ilkley, Jerome Ngonadi, Benedict Shaw and Connor James-Ryan.
Gaynor says: “It is extremely special to be a part of this new theatrical version of The Syndicate and one which my mum was excited to stage. Having acted in the last series on TV, when she asked me to assist her in directing the show I jumped at the chance. Now, it has become my first solo directing role and whilst I am so sad not to be doing it with her, I am also very proud and excited to bring mum’s vision to the fore in her hometown of Leeds.”
