British actor Lennie James is best known for his lengthy stint on the popular Walking Dead TV series. But he says that writing three plays for Auckland's Massive Theatre company has been one of the most rewarding experiences of his long career. The third production, Half of the Sky, is about to premiere after months of collaboration, with actors workshopping Lennie's ideas that he then turned into a script. His previous two shows, The Sons of Charlie Paora and Havoc in the Garden were highly successful shows for the youth theatre company. The new one is about three sisters whose relationship is tested when they spend a weekend together. Lynn Freeman called Lennie James in the UK where he's working on the second series of the TV thriller Save Me.
