We are looking for:

JOSH: he needs to be a male child actor (7-12) who is eager to be on set and has some experience in acting. This part is the lead role, it is a child who is highly interested in becoming a spy, is bored of daily routines, somewhat inquisitive, full of life, and full of mischief.

NADINE: this is our strongest supporting role we are looking for women from (20-80) years of age. Originally, this part was written to be a “grandma” but to help expand the potential acting pool this character can be altered to fit a younger actress into an “aunt.” In the story, this character is the main guide for Josh, she loves simple things, baking pies, and being the independent woman she is. If you have any training in stunts, you may want to consider this part; if you do not have training in stunts I would highly encourage you to still tryout for this role.

CALLISTO: the mother of Josh who will need to be in the age range of (25-40s): an eccentric, somewhat spacey mother who contrasts the role of her husband.

FRANK: the father of Josh who will need to be in the age range of (25-40s): a straight laced, pay the bills, stay practical kind of father.

ELDERLY WOMAN: this part may be altered to fit an actor who shows an understanding of humor, timing, and delivery. Originally this is written for an “elderly woman.” This character is derived from a backwards rural type of setting where electricity has no place.

SPIES: we are in need of around 6 SPIES who are trained/experienced in stunts whether parkour, kickboxing, combat, etc. If anyone knows of any local bouncers that may be interested, please send them the word as well.

We’re hoping for a nice turnout this upcoming weekend. If you would like to audition for a part please visit this website to sign-up
