2b Acting, the Leeds based Theatre and online Video production company, has made a dramatic change to the plot of the new series of their successful internet soap Today & Tomorrow to help raise awareness of cancer and the work of organisations, such as Clic Sargent.
The change was a heart felt reaction to a suggestion from the actor James Marshall who plays the part of Ray Saunders in the show. James and his family are currently coping with the diagnosis of his one year old daughter who is suffering from Wilm's tumour, a cancerous tumour of the kidney.
"Having shot 9 of the 15 episodes of Series 2 it was a challenge to include a new plot to do justice to James’ suggestion but the team felt it was worth doing”, says the series producer and director David Jones, “The soap delivers fast pace storylines in each of the 10 minutes episodes so it will be interesting to see the reaction to how we have tackled this subject when the series is shown.” The new storyline attempts to reflect how those affected by this devastating news cope and the consequences that can arise from misinformation and misunderstandings. James says ‘”I am pleased to be involved in something that acknowledges how grateful we are to those who have really helped us and it would be great if this produced tangible benefits to say a thank you to the charities and all those involved.”
Today & Tomorrow became the region’s first internet weekly soap shown by ITV Local Yorkshire in January this year. ITV Local Yorkshire Channel Manager Mark Waddington is looking forward to showing the second series of the soap. He says, “It’s incredibly brave of 2b Acting to attempt something like this and shows great initiative. We’re always on the lookout for creative people who are prepared to take risks”.
2b Acting is different to other production companies in that they established with the specific purpose of creating acting opportunities for local talent. The ability to utilise this talent as a vehicle to support the work of charities is seen by them as an added bonus.
