Casting

Greetings Everyone,

We will begin the casting process this Saturday. Well I have already been communicating with a few tap dancers about playing the lead roles but now we are looking for actors to play the other non-dancing characters. Because of the no-budget nature of the project we cannot afford to pay actors so this will be a non-union project. We will however provide actors with copy, credit, and meals. And an opportunity to have a speaking role in a super 16 feature length film.

CASTING INFO:
Please bring headshot, resume, and character sides to the audition. Sides can be found on the casting page of the website www.missthangmovie.com
