Description:

ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. Seeking two actresses for "The Dressmaker" film. See the details below. About the project: Thora is never the center of attention, until she finds The Dressmaker. This machine does more than skyrocket her to celebrity, it brings forth a new creature from the mirror: her social media persona, a ruthlessly self-interested fat punk princess. But who will prevail in a battle of self-love? Rate: Paid. Additional information: Please note: the response time will be delayed. Filming starts in September. When applying, please submit a bit of info about you and where directors can see your previous experience + your demo reel.

2 roles

ThoraFemale18-22 y.o.All ethnicities

1st lead, Thora. You are 20 or older and can play both lonely Thora and switch to her manic persona at the drop of a hat. Thora reads like a young Ricki Lake, she's got her own thoughts and is tired of being told how to look. She's got something to say, she just needs the look. Her alter ego, Mince, bursts with a manic intensity and punk rock confidence. Think Toshiro Mifune in Rashomon meets Cathy Moriarty in But I'm a Cheerleader. All applicants welcome, regardless of body type.

ZeldaFemale40-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Thora's aunt. A stylish, spirited seamstress. Caring but a little self-righteous. Chides Thora while she looks out for her. They work together in her atelier.
