Summary

As a young actress in a long-running TV show, Mai Rose's career path seemed clear. But she wants more. Already she's dumped the show and landed a role in a serious play, with serious actors and a more-than-serious director. And now another opportunity has arisen – a major fantasy film with a role that seems tailor-made for her.

The only problem being that she's in competition with four other scheming actresses to win the role.

Can she win the part? Does she want to win the part? She has to navigate her way through the demands of the press, the Russian billionaire owner of the newspaper running the competition, boyfriends past and present, her soldier brother and a particularly ambitious (read: nasty) competitor.

And all of them underestimate her.

Building towards an enthralling climax, Actress examines one person's struggle to come to terms with who she is, what's important to her and – crucially – what she really wants.
