With theatre credits including Sunset Song and The Silver Darlings in both his home city of Aberdeen and with Dundee Rep, CAMERON MOWAT brings a fresh voice to His Gills, the pilot of the abandoned amusement park's rusted old monorail. Cameron will be joining the rest of the cast which, if you missed the news, will feature...

SHEILA REID
PETER KELLY
EWAN PETRIE WENDY RAE FOWLER MARK LITTLE
Another Olivier Award-winner joins us – actor and comedian MARK LITTLE will be Gabriel Augusto Gil, who is Peri's confidante at the Cantina of Lost Souls. Mark's highly- regarded work has included his one-man play Defending The Caveman, the role of Rupert Guinness in the Lance Armstrong biopic Icon directed by Stephen Frears – and who could forget his portrayal of another icon: Joe Mangel in Neighbours.
We're thrilled to have been working this week with singer-songwriter and actress WENDY RAE FOWLER – bringing an incredible voice to Macrell, the lone figure in her observatory who soaks in all your voices, your stories, first words, final words... Wendy has featured as vocalist with bands such as Queens Of The Stone Age and recorded an album under the name We Fell to Earth with Rich File from UNKLE. Together, they composed the theme tune to the Danish TV series The Killing. Wendy is currently putting the finishing touches to her solo album.
Ian McDiarmid (“Star Wars” - Darth Sidious) and Joy McAvoy (“Filth”, and Ken Loach's “The Angel's Share”) head the cast in Akiha Den Den, as beleaguered radio ham Mr Cuttings and Peri – whose voice mysteriously reaches us from the abandoned amusement park.
Also introducing actor / musician Ewan Petrie as joyriding gillravager Glender. More casting news soming soon...
