Talent Needed for "Edward and Tom - A Prince and A Pauper" Show

The company is holding auditions for “Edward and Tom - A Prince and A Pauper” A New Musical by Patricia Miller and looking for performers, please see the details bellow. About the project: Tom Canty, the youngest child of a very poor family living in Offal Court, located in London, England, has been abused by his father and grandmother but is encouraged by the local priest, who taught him to read and write. Loitering around the Palace of Westminster gates one day, Tom sees Edward Tudor, the Prince of Wales. Coming too close in his intense excitement, he is caught and nearly beaten by the royal guards. However, Edward stops them and invites Tom into his palace chamber. There, the two boys get to know one another and are fascinated by each other's lives. They have an uncanny resemblance to each other and learn they were even born on the same day, so they decide to swap clothes "temporarily". Edward hides an item, which the reader later learns is the Great Seal of England, and goes outside to confront the guards who abused Tom; however, dressed as Tom, he is not recognized by the guards, who drive him from the palace.
