You Do It Entertainment LTD with Carter Dixon McGill Productions have today announced the casting for its upcoming workshop and industry presentation of A Second Chance taking place next month.

The one act British musical is about an aspiring singer who faces extraordinary circumstances on the road to fame. Set in the streets of Glasgow in the late 1990s and in London 20 years later, this is a story about family, struggle, sacrifice, fame, gender identity, self-acceptance, and love in all its crazy, wonderous forms.
This final workshop and industry presentation has been made possible due to a massively successful Crowdfunder campaign surpassing their goal of £16K with over 130 supporters, including Alan Cumming, Matthew Bourne, Stephen Mear, and Kevin Mathurin.
The musical has been created by Colin Ross Waterson, who has scored award-winning short films Blood Out of a Stone and Early Mourning, along with Ben Hartley who wrote, directed, & choreographed the multi-award-winning short films Free & Early Mourning, distributed by ShortsTV & Amazon Prime.
A Second Chance is being directed for this presentation of the musical by Bruce Guthrie, with musical direction by Audra Cramer (SIX – the musical), assistant direction by Ben Standish and stage manager is Katie Ball (Mamma Mia).
