‘All Hail the Squash Blossom Queen’ Lead Speaking Roles Casting Call

Date:

‘All Hail the Squash Blossom Queen’ is now casting lead speaking roles in the upcoming feature film.

What is it?

We are conducting a nationwide online casting call to fill the remaining two lead roles for our upcoming film, All Hail the Squash Blossom Queen, a humorous coming-of-age drama.

Bumbershoot has just graduated from high school, but still struggles to be noticed. His friend Hannah helps to convince him to enter their small town’s beauty pageant in an effort to stand out and be noticed, not just by Brittany, the beautiful girl he is smitten with, but by the community who has grossly overlooked him.

all-hailWhat happens if I’m cast?

If cast, filming will take place during 3 weeks in April 2015, in Portland, Oregon and surrounding suburbs with a few days of rehearsal beforehand. This is a SAG-AFTRA New Media  or Ultra-Low Budget project, and compensation will be an hourly rate plus OT (or scale in the case of ULB). If you are not local to the Portland area, coach airfare, lodging, and a per diem will be provided. You do not need to be a member of SAG-AFTRA or have representation in order to audition. But you must be 18 or older by April 1, 2015, and authorized to work in the US. There is no nudity in this film.

How can I audition?

We would prefer you to please record an audition of you on camera performing the sides (for your role) and send us an email ([email protected]) with your headshot, resume, and a link to your audition video uploaded to YouTube or Vimeo. NOTE: If you mark your video as “Private” we will not be able to view it, so please have it marked as Public or Unlisted for YouTube, or password protected or public for Vimeo.

What can I get cast for?

Character Breakdown –

Bumbershoot. 18, Male. Actor can be between 18-25 in age. Average body, leaning towards lighter build. Must pass for a recent high school graduate.

Bumbershoot is an 18 year-old, with unruly hair and a good heart. Many bad things have happened to Bumbershoot over the years, but he mostly just rolls with the punches. Despite his best intentions, he’s seemingly invisible to everyone but his best friend, Hannah. He pines for the affections of Brittany Crowder, the prettiest girl in the county.

Brittany. 18, Female. Actor can be between 18-25 in age. Slim. Must pass for a recent high school graduate.

Brittany is not just the most beautiful girl in school, but in the entire town, county, maybe even the state. She’s sweet and lives only to compete in pageants, not because of vanity, but because that’s how her mom raised her.

NO SOLICITATIONS OR SALES REQUESTS.

If you are not local and/or do not fit the description, do not apply
