Payment is on a lo/no/deferred basis. Director: Ian Dunning. It’s 2045, the UK is in ruins, there have been a number of disasters through out the years, which have had lasting damage on the public, and the UK’s resources, these failings to protect the public have brought large unrest to the UK population. Campaigning on a policy of change and stability Dawn Phillips has just won the general election. We enter on a meeting between Dawn and a small selection of the best advisors in the country as they try and work out a full plan as to how to get the country back in running order and back to the days that the older public fondly remembers. During the meeting we follow through the discussions/arguments as to what needs to be done on the main subjects currently in the publics eye, these are flooding, drinking water supplies, UK’s energy security and possible population problems. During these discussions we will occasionally have a flashback to the disaster or to the publics reaction to the disasters. As the meeting draws out the new PM starts to get more and more exhausted and depressed with the arguments between the solutions and the debate if they are worth the financial cost to the country and if the solutions are just quick shortcuts, which could have a bigger impact in the future. Actors need to be located around Manchester or North West of England or be willing to cover their own expenses. Apply to: newdawn2045@gmail.com
