Sorry folks...not literally!

The Sound of Music star Connie Fisher will be making her TV drama debut in a brand new film for ITV1, titled 'Caught in a Trap'. In her first television role after her success as Maria in the critically acclaimed stage musical, Connie plays Gemma Perkins, a young woman who is obsessed by Elvis Presley.

Filming has just begun on locations in and around London on this drama, and is being produced by Greenlit Rights.

Speaking about her first real TV acting role..Connie says:

"I am thrilled to have been cast in my first television drama and I am very excited to be in front of the camera."

She is joined by a prestigious cast....which includes the likes of Jim Carter (The Oxford Murders, Cranford) playing her father, Geraldine James (Heist, The Last Enemy) as her step mother and Joe Absolom (Doc Martin, Vincent) as her would-be boyfriend.

This film tells the story of Gemma Perkins seeking solace in her secret passion – Elvis Presley. She's obsessed with the rock and roll legend. He never lets her down, unlike every other aspect of her life.

Living at home with her overbearing step-mother and down trodden father, Gemma has a boring, and low paid job emptying car park meters. She's just waiting for something amazing to happen, for her life to really begin.

But then her life takes a dramatic turn when she finds an easy way to fund her obsession with Elvis Presley, and that spending gives her a sense of thrill she's never experienced before. Gemma starts to dip into cash from the parking meters and goes on a spending spree with Elvis memorabilia top of her shopping list.

But the spending spirals out of control, and Gemma is in serious danger of being 'caught in a trap'.

Caught in a Trap is written by award winning new playwright James Graham. He won the Catherine Johnson Award for Best Play 2007 for his play Eden's Empire, and was awarded the Pearson Playwriting Bursary in 2006. He is writer in residence at the Finborough Theatre.

Producer Jill Green says:

"Connie has more than proved herself as an actress in her role as Maria in The Sound of Music. We thought she would be perfect for the role of Gemma Perkins in Caught in a Trap.

Connie has a vulnerability about her and an interesting face which betrays a range of emotions which we require for this role. She has an accessibility, and is a person we can all relate to."
