The Hallelujah Girls

Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope, Jamie Wooten

Comedy
Full Length

2 men, 6 women: 8 total

THE STORY: Hilarity abounds when the feisty females of Eden Falls, Georgia, decide to shake up their lives. The action in this rollicking Southern comedy takes place in SPA-DEE-DAH!, the abandoned church-turned-day-spa where this group of friends gathers every Friday afternoon. After the loss of a dear friend, the women realize time is precious, and if they're going to change their lives and achieve their dreams, they have to get on it now! But Sugar Lee, their high-spirited, determined leader, has her hands full keeping the women motivated. Carlene's given up on romance, having buried three husbands. Nita's a nervous wreck from running interference between her problematic son and his probation officer. Mavis' marriage is so stagnant she's wondering how she can fake her own death to get out of it. And sweet, simple Crystal entertains them all, singing Christmas carols with her own hilarious lyrics. The comic tension mounts when a sexy ex-boyfriend shows up unexpectedly, a marriage proposal comes from an unlikely suitor and Sugar Lee's archrival vows she'll stop at nothing to steal the spa away from her. By the time the women rally together to overcome these obstacles and launch their new, improved lives, you've got a side-splitting, joyful comedy that will make you laugh out loud and shout "Hallelujah!"

**Seattle Area**

Wanted: Male Actor aged 75 or older

A.K. Films is looking for a male actor aged 75 or older to play a small role in an independent, feature-length film, "The Pony Man."

The role is unpaid. Call time is Sunday, January 8th at 9 AM. The location is Vashon Island, WA.

Interested applicants should email Dave McCaul and send a headshot.

The Pony Man
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?

Casting for the part of Jerry.
Suffering from Alzheimer's, Jerry confuses The Pony Man with someone else whom he knew in his youth. He is one of the only characters who is actually glad to receive a visit from The Pony Man.

Thanks in advance for your interest!
