In the Company of Actors(2007)
From a rehearsal room in Sydney through to opening night in New York, a company of actors reveals the magic and struggle of creating theatre.
In the Company of Actors Synopsis
Within the world of theatre the rehearsal room is a sacred space -- the private domain where boundaries are pushed, risks taken, mistakes made, vulnerabilities exposed and, at its very best, magic created. It's not a place into which the public is often, if ever, invited. Until now; In The Company of Actors features an ensemble of Australia's finest actors, including Cate Blanchett and Hugo Weaving, as they prepare to perform the Sydney Theatre Company's production of Hedda Gabler, at the prestigious Brooklyn Academy of Music in New York. Opening night is just five weeks away and the pressure is on.
In the Company of Actors (2007) is a documentary film directed by Ian Darling, released on June 10, 2007 with a runtime of 1h 15m. It stars Cate Blanchett, Hugo Weaving, Andrew Upton and Justine Clarke.
