Three of the UK's hottest young actors have no plans to monkey around after the launch of their own theatre company.
Husband and wife duo Joanne McInnes and Lee Ross, who played a fictional couple in BBC drama Playing The Field, launched the arts company called A.P.E. with James Lance, star of Book Group, Teachers and Brit-flick Late Night Shopping.
The company's first stage production will be the UK premiere of Tape, recently made into a film by director Richard Linklater, at the New Venture Theatre in Bedford Place, Brighton.
All three actors live in Brighton and formed A.P.E. because of their increasing disillusionment with the television industry.
Joanne, who makes her directorial debut with Tape, says: "Two West Ends theatres wanted to premiere Tape but the author chose us, which we take as a big compliment."
The dark comical drama opens on July 15. To purchase a ticket, call 01273 746188.
