Shooting an amazing short movie this week :) in Wimbledon Common

Feb 14, 2013 ⋅ 0 Comments ⋅ Performances ⋅ By Maja

This week I had the honour and a humongous pleasure to take part in the shooting of an amazing short movie set in the Wimbledon Common. Before I started singing, I was a trained actress, and I am now coming back to my acting past. I auditioned for the project last year, and was delighted to be chosen, especially knowing that casting for the movie was overseen by none other than Gail Stevens, Casting Director for movies such as Slumdog Millionnaire or Trainspotting. You can find out more about this exciting project directed by Kieron Jansch here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jansch/common-a-chilling-short-film-set-in-sw19-0 and here:

Fabulous - thoroughly recommend Maja - we had a 1930's evening village tea party/dance just the perfect band for a 21st birthday - couldn't have been more willing to help the evening being a 'swing' of a time - lovely repertoire very accommodating with last minute requests, lots of fun and dancing - thank you.

I was very nervous, while organising my wedding party, but clear communication from Maja, personalised service made me feel really confident about this part of the evening. We wanted 4 piece band and Maja made it happen for a very reasonable price! Wedding took place on the boat, which made it a bit harder for the band, but with no adverse effect on the quality of the entertainment. Music has been discreet when we needed it and then they really got the crowd going. Guests really appreciated their presence on the night.The band was talented, polite, friendly and accommodating and they even took last minute song requests. Maja, from the bottom of my heart – many thanks for being part of our big day! Justyna & Lucjan " - Oct 2014
