Next of Kin

Next of Kin

My name is John, and I'm an actor... well sort of...

Ambition, pride, ego, money, self-doubt, self-loathing, fear, insecurity, greed...

How does a jobbing actor, juggling dead end part time jobs and zero hour contracts, become the success that he always dreamed he'd be?

Contains strong language that some listeners may find offensive.
