christine tremarco
Actor Christine Tremarco (Leaving of Liverpool, Face, Under the Skin, Dockers, Waterloo Road, Casualty) will attend the screening of her feature film Hold Back The Night on Monday 21 June, 7pm at Picturehouse@Fact.
Directed by Philip Davies (1994) and long-time Ken Loach collaborator Sally Hibbin written by John Sacksteder, Hold Back the Night is the story of two Scottish youngster, Charleen (Christine Tremarco) and Declan (Stuart Sinclair Blyth) on the run from their past, their families and the police. Both are damaged, complex and difficult but soon they begin to come to terms with each other and their newfound friends...Killer, an unlovable pit bull terrier, and Vera (Sheila Hancock) a lesbian whose dying wish is to see the sunrise on the Ring of Brodgar in Orkney.
Sally Hibbin, from Parallax Pictures said about Christine Tremarco “She is an extraordinary actress. We wondered what she would be like with accents but when she came back to see us after doing some research in Bradford, she was fantastic!”
On the future screening Christine said ‘I will always support Clapperboard as I think the creative work that Maureen Sinclair and the team does with young people is fantastic. On a personal note it’s important for me to be able to give something back to the young people in this city and the North West’.
Christine will participate in a Question and Answers session with the audience. A complimentary after show drink will be sponsored by Alma de Cuba.
