Upcoming credits...

'& Sons'
A funereal short film
by Joseph Prowen and Tom Byrne
Directed by Chris Jenks
Starring Adrian Edmonson, Joseph Prowen & Tom Byrne

John Payle, of Payle Funeral Directors (formerly Payle & Gaunt, before the departure of Graham Gaunt) is planning his own funeral. It needs to be just right: sombre, respectful, a little bit frightening. One of his sons, Simon, is set to take over the family business. The other, Lucien, wants nothing to do with it. John gathers his two sons to help him out, but does he also have an ulterior motive?

Currently in post-production. Joseph plays Simon and wrote the film with fellow actor Tom Byrne, who plays Lucien.  Joe did most of the writing. Tom added "vibes" (?) The sublime Adrian Edmonson plays John.

Some previous credits...

Joseph Prowen in A Christmas Carol
A Christmas Carol

 
Royal Shakespeare Company
Directed by Rachel Kavanaugh

As Scrooge's impossibly upbeat nephew, Fred, in David Edgar's beautiful adaptation. This was a good one. So good in fact, he did it twice. Once in 2017 with Phil Davis as Scrooge, and again in 2022 with Adrian Edmonson as the old bugger. Both legendary.

Piaf

 
Nottingham Playhouse,
Leeds Playhouse
Directed by Adam Penford

Played banjo AND had a moustache in this one. Another dreamy company, sickeningly talented, led by Jenna Russell.

The Celestial Choir


 
BBC
Directed by Paul Gibson

Cast and crew to die for, loads of fun to film. Sang some songs, frolicked in the countryside.

 Trial By Laughter
 
Watermill / UK tour
Directed by Caroline Leslie

Ian Hislop and Nick Newman's play about William Hone, the bookseller who defended himself in court against libel and blasphemy charges, and won. Another gorgeous company, laughed a lot. One reviewer said  "Joseph Prowen is immediately likeable as Hone, seeming to become pale to the point of transparency as he ploughs on through his ordeal".
