Currently performing as The Judge in James Bridie's 'Mr Gillie' at Finborough Theatre, Drew is creating a storm as is the whole production and cast. Here's a snippet from a review by London Pub Theatres:
“The acting in this production is superb, from Mr Gillie played by Andy Sercombe to the cameo role of The Judge played by Drew Paterson. The understated and quiet tones of the judge played beautifully against the loud and frenetic humans below.”

Way to rock it MeMe Detroit!
"...'Live to Love…’ is one of those rare albums which could just as easily sit on an Indie playlist as on a Rock list." - Rich Hobson, Uber Rock
"....a deliciously throwback 90s grunge vibe that would make even the sharpest of hairs stand up on the backs of necks.." - Leigh Sanders, Express & Star
"So there’s a bit of a buzz surrounding this next artist, and it’s getting louder and louder." - Joanne Kendrick, Mosh magazine
"...with a musical style reminiscent of The Smashing Pumpkins and Incubus. Her vocals draw out the 90’s Alt Rocker in you.." - Mica Hamilton, retrograde.
"From her opening gambit of “Let’s get you fuckers to the front!” Detroit had the audience in the palm of her hand" - James Holder, Musical Outcast
RD Casting is proud to welcome the following great new talent to its network.
Meet Irish red head actress and writer Elaine.
A Guildford School of Acting graduate, Elaine recently appeared in the one act play "6 Degrees" at the Courtyard Theatre in Hoxton. She also plays guitar, writes her own songs and sings them. Check out her cover of "Little Bird" below.
I am an actress living in London who loves to sing and play. My repertoire mainly consists of folk songs which I have learned over the years in the beautiful country of Ireland. I am a big fan of Lisa Hannigan and thought it fitting that my first video would be a cover Lisa's 'Little Bird'.
British actress, singer and dancer Natasha Wynn is a graduate of London Studio Centre and an MA graduate from the prestigious Guildford School of Acting.
Natasha is a versatile performer. While at GSA, Natasha worked with directors such as Pete Gallagher, Nicholas Tudor, Kenn Oldfield, Michael Vivian. She was also dance captain for her last two GSA productions.
Natasha has been described as a very watchable and honest actress with a great stage presence. She is professional, open and always has something to offer.
Both graduates of Portsmouth University and talent spotted by Head of RD Casting, Michael Moor, RD Casting is proud to have the up and coming youthful talent of actor Barnaby Lawrence and actress Emily Power in its midst
Congratulations to all of you for becoming part of the RD Casting team. We are excited to have you on board.
RD Casting would like to formally welcome new talent, an Associated Studios graduate, Suzie Thorn.

You will have recently seen my articles on Red Door Productions and Casting Limited. With the announcement of their 3 day intensive course, I wanted to find out more from agent and owner Michael Moor. Below are his answers to my questions to do just that.
Having sat on audition panels for over 25 years – I have seen too many very talented young people make obvious and often silly mistakes at audition. The aim, vision and inspiration for my Audition Busters workshop is to shed light on the drama school audition format, process and etiquette. And in short to enable the student to focus and be mentally prepared for the audition process.
My 3 day workshop will cover the key elements of a drama school audition:
I expect the candidates to gain a clear understanding of the task ahead of them so that they are not phased by the real thing!
Audition Busters – will essentially be running ‘mock’ auditions and offering valuable experience and constructive feedback. The students on the course will be expected to do some preparation in advance of the course and to take notes and keep a journal during the course. Finally I expect the students to reflect on what they have learnt over the 3 days.
I would tell myself to have patience with myself and with others – it takes time and ‘life experience’ to develop as both a human being and an artist.
I would say that it is important to develop a professional and working relationship with your agent. You need to be able to speak to them and trust them both professionally and artistically.
To be honest I am proud of all my ex students – not just the high flyers. I am most proud of the ones who overcame difficulties and personal issues for succeed – often against the odds.
Actually, I would like to do it all again!
I would definitely like to fly!
I would like to invite Muhammad Ali, Bob Dylan, Meryl Streep.
Thank you for your time Michael, fascinating to learn more on your Audition Busters workshop. I believe this will be invaluable to people looking to hone their audition skills and be successful. Who knows where this will take candidates in their careers!
