Gaynor Faye - The Syndicate
Gaynor will be making her directorial debut of and starring in The Syndicate, the world premiere of Kay Mellor’s stage play based on the hit BBC TV show that entertained millions of viewers over four series and will tour the UK for 14 weeks from April to July 2024.
The Syndicate follows five supermarket employees whose lottery syndicate numbers come in, just as their jobs and livelihoods are under threat.
Will a share of the £24million jackpot make their dreams come true or their nightmares a reality? One thing’s for certain, the win of a lifetime will change the lives, loves and relationships of all the syndicate members… for ever.
Gaynor said: “It is extremely special to be a part of this new theatrical version of The Syndicate and one which my mum was really excited to stage. Having acted in the last series on TV, when she asked me to assist her on directing the show – I jumped at it. Now, it has become my first solo directing role and whilst I am so sad not to be doing it with her, I am also very proud and excited to bring mum’s vision to the fore. Josh Andrews is a fantastic producer who I’ve worked with on several shows and with a fabulous creative team and, of course, an incredible script, we’re going to reach for the stars and make mum’s wish come true, bringing another Kay Mellor classic to theatres across the country.”
The Syndicate is produced by Rollem and Josh Andrews Productions in association with JAS Theatricals.
