Hispanic Male Extra Needed - $50

We will be shooting an episode of a true crime series with the Washington County Sheriff's Office. On Thursday (11/4), we need a hispanic male extra to play a suspect in an interrogation scene at the WCSO. There will be no lines to memorize, or any major acting. We will just have you sitting in an interview room with a real detective who will be asking some basic questions. The field producer will feed you the responses we need. The scene will take no more than one hour to film.

If interested please send a recent photo, and previous acting experience if you have any.

Last minute Role Available

Hey Portlanders-
So, we're doing an invite-only reading of a new script tonight, and one of our actresses just pulled out sick!
Are there any 40ish female African American Actresses out there who are free this evening? If I can't find someone that fits, I'm willing to give on age or race....
If so, please email me back ASAP at TheatreBrian@yahoo.com. I'll be checking frequently.
Unfortunately no pay, but a fantastic role and a good opportunity to help shepherd along a young play.
7:30 reading at the Concordia University theatre in close in NE Portland.
Thanks!
Brian

Casting notice for a Non-Union Feature Film

Hello.

AK Films (artificialkhaos.com) is now casting for the two main roles in its' upcoming feature film, The Pony Man.

Plot Synopsis:

It’s 2010 and the economy is in recession. But when Ed Heller loses his job, he sees it as an opportunity rather than a reason to lose hope. Inspired by a homeless street clown, Ed buys a pony and begins taking it door to door in his Seattle neighborhood. Will Seattle open its doors to the Pony Man? And will Ed's children let him back in their hearts?

Character Breakdown / Casting Needs:

Ed - late fifties, caucasian, an accountant forced into early retirement who decides to pursue a new career as "The Pony Man" by traveling door to door in Seattle neighborhoods with a pony & a camera. Though the odds are against him (he has no prior experience with horses & this career in particular has been obsolete for decades) Ed forges ahead, determined to make his dream a reality. He has two grown children, one of whom still lives at home. During the course of the story, he takes a homeless woman into his home as well.

Bertie - mid to late fifties, African American. Decades ago, Bertie decided to dedicate her life to being a clown. Despite the fact she is now homeless, she remains strongly tied to her passion for entertaining children. Retaining a surprisingly positive outlook on life (& a very keen sense of humor) even in the face of extreme adversity, Bertie serves as a source of inspiration & strength for both Ed & his grown daughter, Barbara.

Audition details:

We're holding auditions on Thursday, November 11th from 6-8pm in the Seattle Center's Center House, Room 4G. If interested, please e-mail mccauliflower@hotmail.com to schedule a slot.

Thanks!

*Scheduling an Audition*
To schedule an audition or if you have any
questions please call Seattle Musical Theatre’s production office at (206)
363-4807.

All actors are paid a stipend

*About the Show*

To chase his blues away, a modern day musical theatre addict known simply as
'Man in Chair' drops the needle on his favorite LP – the 1928 musical comedy
The Drowsy Chaperone. From the crackle of his hi-fi, the musical magically
bursts to life on stage, telling the tale of a pampered Broadway starlet who
wants to give up show business to get married, her producer who sets out to
sabotage the nuptials, her chaperone, the debonair groom, the dizzy chorine,
the Latin lover and a pair of gangsters who double as pastry chefs.

*Audition Requirements*
For the audition, please prepare a monologue and a
verse and/or chorus of a standard Broadway song. Please bring sheet music in
the key you will sing it in (the accompanist will not transpose on the spot,
and we do not do auditions with CD accompaniment or a cappella singing). *The
song and the monologue together should not last more than three minutes*.
Also, please bring a headshot and resume.

*Dance Requirements*
Dance call will be held during callbacks. ALL actors
called back need to attend the dance call and should be dressed in dance
appropriate clothes. Men should bring jazz sneakers and women should bring
character shoes. If you can tap dance, please also bring your tap shoes.

*Parts*

MAN IN CHAIR - 30's-50's, non-singing. Musical theatre aficionado who mourns
the end of the Golden Era. Quirky and reserved, he is absolutely obsessed
with the Golden Age of musical theatre. Like, REALLY obsessed. Lovably
awkward and odd, he is the heart of the show.

JANET VAN DE GRAAF - 20's-30's, G-Eb, triple threat. The famous bride,
played by rising star Jane Roberts. A leading lady all the way - beautiful,
poised, and on the verge of knowing it. A true star-in-the-making.

ROBERT MARTIN - 20's-30's, leading man, C-Ab. MUST TAP DANCE. The dashing,
ever-cheerful groom, played by matinee-idol Percy Hyman A little too
knowledgable of his good looks, and a total cheeseball. If Janet's not the
best actress in the world, next to Robert she looks like Meryl Streep.

THE DROWSY CHAPERONE - SEEING BOTH MEN AND WOMEN FOR ROLE. 30's-50's,
F-D. Janet's alcoholic confidante, played by well-established stage actress
Beatrice Stockwell. Somewhere between Judy Garland, Liza Minelli, Carol
Channing, Ethel Merman, Elaine Stritch, Eartha Kitt, Shirley Bassey and
RuPaul.

ALDOLPHO - 30's-50's, A#-G. European self-proclaimed "ladies man", played by
former silent movie star Roman Bartelli. An absolute minstrel show of an
European stereotype. You can tell that he's mostly done silent movies.

MRS. TOTTENDALE - 40's-60's, G-Db. Dumb as a box of hair.

UNDERLING - 40's-60's, Ab-G. British. Butler.

MR. FELDZIEG - 40's-60's, Db-Db. Producer with a commanding presence

KITTY - 20's-30's, Bb-F. Sleezy, bleach-blonde chorine. Think Lily St. Regis
in ANNIE.

GANGSTERS - 20's-50's, Db-Gb. Ideally, Italian twins who have a vaudeville
act. Need two actors who look alike with great skills in physical comedy.
Preferably short.

GEORGE - 20's-40's, F-Bb, MUST TAP DANCE. The best man at the wedding.
Strong character actor, lovable but not "cute."

TRIX - 20's-40's, Ab-Eb. African American. Lesbian airplane pilot. Big,
boisterous and full of joy.

ENSEMBLE (4) - 20's-40's, all vocal ranges. Looking for singers who move
extremely well.

**ALL ACTORS SHOULD HAVE AN OVERWHELMING SENSE OF FUN/PLAY/JOY AND SHOULD BE
SKILLED COMEDIANS**

*Seattle Musical Theatre (SMT) employs a policy of open and diverse casting.
No casting decisions will be made until everyone participating in our
