An original comedy series shooting a pilot in Austin, TX the weekend of May 26-27th is casting the following parts:
ESTER (70-80)- Elderly caucasian woman suffering dementia. Out of it, perpetually frightened. Conveys reactions physically and with facial expressions.
STANLEY (elderly OR middle-aged/considering a range of ages for this role) - Happy-go-lucky guy who tries to fit in with the young cool kids by experimenting with pot and using slang. Positive-thinker.
SECURITY GUARD (20-35) - Might look like something of an underdog, or the guy who never gets the girl.
CHINESE COOK (tbd age) - Works in the food court at a Panda Express-like restaurant. Does not speak English. Angry and territorial.
Will definitely need to be available 5/27 evening, and possibly 5/26. Shooting in a shopping mall. Also casting extras for the shoot, email if interested.
Roles are unpaid, as this is a no-to-low-budget production. But we will feed you. It's going to be a FUN, easy-going shoot, and a high-quality piece.
Please email a headshot and/or photo(s), and any video samples to Christine: christinegio@gmail.com
Resumes optional. *SEND WITH THE SUBJECT LINE: "Mall Comedy Casting"*.
In-person casting for major roles will be at a TBD time & location.
