"They're gonna put me in the movies ..."


The Red Room 



THE STORY

When an aspiring writer is offered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity as a writing assistant to her favorite novelist, she agrees to spend a weekend with the eccentric novelist and his wife, but it quickly turns into a deadly game of cat and mouse due to the novelist's unconventional writing process.  


CAST



Aleigh Burt: Playing the role of "Nia". 

"My name is Aleigha Burt, and I’ve been cast as Nia in the movie, “The Red Room.” I’m an actress based out of Atlanta, GA, and I love to travel, EAT and binge-watch anything created by the true QUEEN, Shonda Rhimes. I’m so excited to be playing in my first thriller, and I can’t wait to get started on this project!”



Mark Phialas: Playing the role of "Jacob Rory"

" I’ve been captivated with stories most of my life, whether they be revealed on a stage, a film set, a football stadium, a basketball arena, or something as simple as old friends running into each other in a park, both with tales to share. I’m passionate about the process of that telling, as each story has its own parameters, it's own “recipe” that brings the cake to the table, so to speak. Thrilled to be granted the opportunity to be part of the collaborative undertaking of THE RED ROOM. It's going to be a heck of a ride."



Celeste Marcone: Playing the role of "Jennifer Rory"

"Born and raised in South Carolina as one of seven kids, I navigated to North Carolina for my college years, with a degree in Drama/Theatre Arts and English/Literature. I spent many years focusing on live theatre before navigating towards film and commercial work. My quirky sense of humor led me to get up in front of the class as far back as elementary school to “act” during oral presentations and reports I had to present – and showed me how much I enjoyed it! Performing allows me to explore the lives of different people in various situations and relationships. I cannot be more excited and thankful to work with this talented group of cast and crew."



Erycka Anderson: Playing the Role of "Dee"

"I'm a fun and very sarcastic person and I love showcasing a good vibe for the people I'm around. I'm excited for the audience to be pulled into this rollercoaster of a ride on The Red Room. Truly a masterpiece and will have you on the edge of your seat."



Tatianna Blount: Playing the role of "Alexandria."

"NC native with a passion for cinema and film production. Free-spirited, slightly offbeat, and love to laugh. Super excited about getting on set! I love to learn and welcome taking direction. Beyond ecstatic to see what the crew is going to pull out of every member of the cast."
