The cast of Jumpers

Set in a Britain on the brink of change, the reforming Radical Liberal party has won power in a landslide and a man has been put on the moon. George, a Professor of Moral Philosophy, is up late writing a paper called Man: good, bad or indifferent? Driven to distraction by the wild election party his wife Dotty, a reclusive ex-musical star, is hosting, with a full band and live acrobatics, he makes an anonymous complaint to the police. The next morning the police arrive, but not to investigate George’s complaint. Unbeknownst to him, a murder took place at the party, and Dotty is the prime suspect.

Rhea Norwood (Heartstopper) as Dorothy
James Corrigan (A Doll’s House) as George
