Denise & Kevin Prout
Daniele Sanderson - Director
Daniele is currently the head of undergraduate studies for acting at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire. She has been the course director for the BA in Acting for the last 18 yrs and has had the pleasure to guide many students into their professional careers whilst continuing to work professionally where possible both as a director and actor.
She is therefore delighted when this two aspects of her life combine with the opportunity to direct these newly minted RBC graduates in Holes, which follows a recent open air production of a A Midsummer Night’s Dream at Lightwoods House last month.
James Taheny - Gus
James is a recent graduate of Royal Birmingham Conservatoire.
Prior to Holes, James played Graham Cutter in Speculators by Tony Marchant.
He has a passion for story-driven musicals, as well as being an avid fantasy fan, and has no shame in saying how much he loves Dungeons and Dragons.
Jonathan Houlston - Ian

‘Holes’ will be Jonathan’s second time working for Tread the Boards as he played Jean Claude Van Dumb in Beauty and the Beast at the Cidermill theatre last Christmas.

He is very excited to be performing at the Attic Theatre and is eager to bring this dark comedy to life!
Sadie Sumich - Erin
Sadie is a New Zealand born actor who is a 2023 graduate from the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire.
'Holes' with Tread the Boards will be Sadie's professional debut as she plays 16 year-old Erin.

Sadie is eager to take the stage at the Attic Theatre with Tread the Boards and to show audiences this dark comedy.
