THIS IS TRULY A STAR MAKING ROLE. OPEN TO ACTRESSES WITH MINIMAL EXPERIENCE. ALL WILL BE CONSIDERED.
[ MARY ]
Female age 15-18. Caucasian. She’s a glass half-empty kind of girl – brooding and jaded and cynical but also romantic. Dragged along on a road trip with her mother and her mother’s new boy toy boyfriend into the backwoods of Missouri, Mary is hoping to meet up with Felix, the boyfriend she’s in love with whom she met online, but has never met in person. Today is the worst day of her life, but so was yesterday. She has a caustic attitude and would do anything to be 18 and free of her current situation…LEAD (4) NOT TOO TALL, is baby-faced, innocent and vulnerable – NOT Hollywood sophisticated. WE ARE NOW ACCEPTING SUBMISSIONS FOR AGES 15 – 18. ACTORS SHOULD BE PUT ON TAPE ASAP. .
