MINISTRY OF THE MIND, 2019
SYNOPSIS:
Ministry of the Mind (2019) is an anecdotal story around the balance between work and play and the detrimental effects the imbalance can cause to mental wellbeing. HE/HIM has been pragmatic and hardworking since a young age when he had an epiphanic moment of wanting nothing else but success. However, when the embodiment of productivity and efficiency, THE MINISTER, becomes a permanent addition to his head space, the ship begins to rock and the aftermath is revealed.
ROLE - YOUNG HIM:
Young and innocent in appearance. Goes through a process of hard studying to improve their grades at school. Playful, free-spirited and creative. No to few lines.
Actor will double up this role with a portrayal of the same character’s mind, similar in character and motivation, who meets the MINISTER character and benefits from their leadership.
