New web series with a wealth of comedy talent

An impressive array of comedy talent has been assembled for a new web series, offering behind-the-scenes footage of a fictional, crowdfunded short film.

The trailer has just dropped for the four-part comedy Petrichor, which launches in weekly episodes here, starting next Wednesday

.The Pin's Alex Owen plays the film-maker, ‘a deluded man way out of his depth and far more in love with the real drama of the "making of" than the fictional drama of the short film’.

He leads a cast that includes Ellie White, Al Roberts, Lolly Adefope, Jason Forbes, Katy Wix, Mark Silcox, Freya Parker, Kath Hughes, Ben Ashenden, Edward Easton, Celeste Dring, Adam Drake and Shivani Thussu.

The semi-improvised show was created directed and written by Will Farrell and Ben Rowse, known for his live work with Goose.
