Multi-award winning actor Bill Ward (Coronation Street; Emmerdale), will be joining the cast of the brand new musical, Are You As Nervous As I Am?, one of the first original British musicals coming out after lockdown.

Bill will be playing the role of Bob, the charismatic band leader who hides a darker side. Bill joins the previously announced Katie Elin-Salt in the role of Peggy, the young and impressionable girl with a passion for singing, and Emma Thornett as Janet, the runaway sister in search of a more honest life.

The story follows a journey of two sisters – Peggy and Janet – in their search for happiness. Fighting against their mother’s dysfunctional behaviour, they are forced apart to pursue lives away from their home in Wales.

       

Set against the background of a century in flux, when the sisters reconnect, they are gradually empowered to positively transform their lives

Final casting also includes: Sarah Ingram (Flashdance; Oklahoma!) as Catrin/Christine, Daniel Abbott (Groan Ups; Pride and Prejudice) as Larry, Simon Furness (The Cleaner; Uncle Vanya) as Peter, Ian Houghton (War Horse; This House) as The Welsh Soldier/Sam Berkowitz, Emily-Mae (City of Angels; Hairspray) as Kiki Kavelle, Jenny Perry (The Rocky Horror Picture Show; The Wizard of Oz) as A Cockney Girl/Peggy and Janet Cover.
