Young actors in drama festival
From the Lancashire Evening Telegraph, first published Friday 21st Apr 2000.
ARNOLD School in Blackpool is proving the world is a stage with its latest production, a version of the classic Arthur Miller tragedy A View From The Bridge.
But the thespian spirit won't be noticeable in Blackpool because the play will take place in the Isle of Man over Easter as part of the island's prestigious drama festival.
The play tells the story of Eddie Carbone, an Italian longshoreman, working in the New York docks when his wife's cousins Mario and Rodolpho arrive from Sicily seeking refuge as illegal immigrants.
Lower sixth form pupil Matthew Bannister who is playing Eddie said: "I'm really looking forward to the role -- I've never been to the Isle of Man before and it should be an experience to remember."
