Elaine
Cassidy Elaine Cassidy was still at school in Kilcoole, County Wicklow, when Atom Egoyan cast her as Felicia in Felicia's Journey (1999). It was a remarkable beginning. Her serious brown eyes and bare schoolgirl legs were the outward signs of a performance that captured perfectly the character's sweet determination, naivety and vulnerability. She has since fulfilled the promise of Felicia in an impressive range of work: the mute maid in The Others (Alejandro Amenábar, 2001); Runt in Disco Pigs (Kirsten Sheridan, 2001); Agnes in The Lost World (Stuart Orme, BBC, 2001); Carrie in The Bay of Love and Sorrows (Tim Southam, 2002); Martin McDonagh's terrifying child-woman in The Lieutenant of Inishmore at the RSC (Wilson Milam, Garrick, 2002); Anna in Watermelon (ITV, 2003); Maggie in Owen McCafferty's Scenes from the Big Picture at the National (Peter Gill, Cottesloe, 2003); Hitler's doomed niece in Uncle Adolf (ITV, 2005); Mauda tender pairing with the equally flourishing Sally Hawkinsin Fingersmith (BBC, 2005); Amy Harris in The Ghost Squad (Channel Four, 2005); Abigail in The Crucible at the RSC (Dominic Cooke, RST and Gielgud, 2006); Candy in The Truth (2006); Sandra in And When Did You Last See Your Father? (Anand Tucker, 2007); Louise in Frank McGuinness's There Came a Gypsy Riding at the Almeida (Michael Attenborough, 2007); and a beautiful realisation of E.M. Forster's Lucy in A Room With a View (ITV, 2007). |
