Two Young Actors Needed for Independent Film TWINKS

MISC_Casting callTWINKS, an independent feature-length film, is looking for two boys, 9-12, for a short flashback scene in which the actors will play young versions of adult characters. Although the film overall is “PG-13”, this short scene, only 1.5 pages, is “G” to “PG.”

Roles are unpaid. Actors receive credit and a copy of the film. No experience required — just an interest in movies and/or an aptitude for acting! Minimal time commitment — about 2.5 hours max. Location: Northern Kentucky (Fort Thomas area).

This scene is one of three final scenes to be shot! Woot, woot!

TDW Seeks Young Actor

TDW_VERTThe Drama Workshop is looking for a young man, around 17 or who looks young, who can act and sing tenor for their production of A 1940S RADIO CHRISTMAS CAROL. The show runs Dec 6 – 22, 2013 at The Glenmore Playhouse in Cheviot. Rehearsals will begin shortly.

The character is “Little” Jackie Sparks – not actually “little”, but young. A tenor with a high speaking voice. Having just graduated from high school, he’s 17, living with his mom in Newark, still has a Sunday paper route. He’s teased a lot, wears ear muffs and galoshes in the winter. Think a “Dennis Day” type.

Please contact Elaine Volker, producer, for more info or with any leads.

Thanks
Elaine Volker
