Actors Audition For Upcoming Film
Casting actors for indie capstone comedy film, please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. About the project: To "prove how far they've come," three stuttering students are forced to perform at the end of year assembly for Monroe Middle school by their pitifully under-qualified and underfunded speech therapy teacher, Coach Novak. Unfortunately, they haven't come very far at all, and Novak's made-up strategies to 'cure' the students turn out to be unorthodox at best. Welcome to New York City, 2004. Rate: Paid. Additional info: Shooting March 1st, 7th, and 8th in the Utah Valley. When applying, please send your self-tape for sides and mention the desired role.
