After being given a press release pass to check out the new Mystery at Mansfield Manor game, I was kindly offered the chance to interview a few members of cast and crew and get all the questions I had about the game off my chest.

In the second of a three part series, I got the chance to interview the beautiful and charismatic Lindsey Frazier, who plays the “girlfriend” of the deceased — Nicole Edmunds.

Andy Ogier: Hi Lindsey, thanks for taking time out to talk to me and our Blogcritics readers.

Lindsey Frazier: It’s my pleasure. I am thrilled that there has been such an interest shown towards MMM.

Andy: So, tell us a bit about yourself.

Lindsey: Well, I am currently in Charlottetown PEI for the summer as a member of the Charlottetown Festival, performing in their two main stage shows, ‘Anne of Green Gables’ and ‘Canada Rocks!’ This is my second season with the festival, and after last season I decided to move from my home in Bermuda, and make Toronto my home base so that I could begin to make the transition from the musical theatre world to the film world. I am a graduate of the Sheridan College Music Theatre – Performance program and have been in many musicals, as well as a number of short films, including ‘Curve Balls’ ‘Conflict’ and ‘Ballerina Burns’ in the last few years.

Andy: And you play one of the key roles in the online interactive games MaMM – the beautiful Nicole Edmunds. How did you find out about the role?

Lindsey: Through my agent, DaCosta Talent.Management in Toronto.

Andy: Tell us a bit about Nicole.

Lindsey: I was actually quite excited to play the role of Nicole, because she is so complex and has such unique relationships with each of the members in the household. Immediately after reading the script I saw that Nicole would need to be a very bold and strong-willed person to live in a household where she is hated by almost everyone. Although she does have a softer side and can be caring and considerate, she is also very smart and manipulative.  This is a girl who knows how to push people’s buttons and get what she wants.  

Andy: She certainly does interact with the other characters in several different ways – cold and calculating to some like Rachel, then warm and kind to others like Debra, then become sexy, sultry and seductive around Greg! How do you prepare for a role that varies in moods and emotions so much?

Lindsey: Well, in everyday life you interact differently with each person you know. You have people you like, dislike, love, trust, or distrust etc. Nicole is a slightly heightened character who simply does not hold back on any of these emotions. In preparing for each scene, I made sure I knew exactly how I felt about each character I was involved with, what our history has been, and what I wanted from them.
