Casting Call Information
- When: Saturday, April 12, 9 – 11 a.m.
Please email Becky Haltermon at beckyhaltermon@gmail.com to schedule a specific appointment time. - Where: Meeting Room 3B, Cincinnati Public Library Main Branch, 800 Vine Street, Cincinnati, Ohio, 45202
- WHO: Talented voice actors at least 18 years old. While the roles call for a retro, 1950s-era delivery, the script is humorous and would benefit from a reading that straddles the line between classic and modern.
