mordred is a feature film and theatre production, being directed by laura jay, one of our founders.

a gritty, dark tale, mordred is an arthurian-era drama, heavily influenced by the earliest legends of mordred, who is traditionally seen as king arthur’s arch-nemesis, and illegitimate son. in the earlier legends, mordred is much more of an ambiguous character, and not pure evil, as in modern re-tellings, this film and theatre show tells of the legends, from mordred’s point of view.

this drama is set in the 530s, against the backdrop of the saxon invasions, heavily influenced by celtic legends and druidic traditions, and the earliest tales of arthur, and his followers. the film will be made across south west england, with as much use as possible of actual arthurian locations, and ancient sites, in devon and cornwall. the theatre shows will be performed in south devon (as a certainty) and we will also be looking to perform in cornwall, as well.

auditions will be held sunday feb 28, 2016, 4.30pm.
