SXSW Gig Looking for Male Actor

[kaci_beeler]

I just received this e-mail through The Hideout and thought I would pass on the info:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I am in desperate need of a quirky male comedian who would be available for SXSW next week. I am helping a client with their trade show booth @ SXSW and our "collaboration angel" quit on us just days before the show.
We were originally looking for a gruff actor, but now we're looking for any quirky guy willing to wear our small angel costume and a white tank top while calling out to passers by on the trade show floor.

I have copied the full original ad below. Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you
Kim Ferreira

Our online collaboration software company is looking for a 40 - 55 year old male actor who is both hairy and gruff (all shapes and sizes welcome) to play the part of our collaboration angel on March 10 - 13 @ SXSW.

We are looking for someone who is witty, boisterous and who has the ability to confidently interact with people at a trade show. We want you to be funny without being offensive. You must be comfortable with wearing a costume.

We will provide some lines and background to our product but someone who can ad-lib is highly preferred.

As mentioned, the role involves being at a trade show in Austin on March 10 - 13 for SXSW and you will be mostly interacting with people from within our company's booth. You will be up on a small stage but you will have the ability to move freely.

If interested, please email us (kimferreira@gmail.com) to tell us why you think you would be a good fit for this fun role. Please provide your contact information, a photo and any footage if appropriate.

We are only accepting applicants from the Austin area.

The schedule is as follows (with breaks and lunch worked in). If the audience dies down a bit, we can adjust the hours as needed.

Sunday, March 10th: 11am - 6pm
Monday, March 11th: 11am - 6pm
Tuesday, March 12th: 11am - 6pm
Wednesday, March 13th: 11am - 4p

The pay would be about $150 per day paid via paypal or check.
