She’s not just casting a role. she’s gambling with a legacy.
It’s the eve of the biggest casting reveal in Hollywood: Deborah is about to announce the next face of the world’s most legendary spy franchise. The tux is pressed, the martinis are chilled… until the rumours start flying. Her perfect pick? Caught in a scandal that would make even their on-screen alter ago look tame.
With a ticking clock and a legacy on the line, Deborah must make an impossible choice: stick to the sleek, suited formula the world knows, or dare to let the next generation redefine a global icon.
A razor-sharp, laugh-out-loud comedy about identity, legacy, and the explosive battle between tradition and progress, A Role to Die For will leave you shaken, stirred, and seriously entertained.
"This wickedly-funny world premiere is a real crowd-pleaser."
Wilts and Glos Standard
"A Role To Die For certainly left us shaken with laughter and stirred by the thoughts."
West End Best Friend
"The show is a tonic, and deserves an audience beyond Cirencester as we all drum our fingers waiting for the real deal."
Dominic Cavendish, The Telegraph
