Simple, dynamic and charming/
Elizabeth Bacon Custer: /34. Prettiest girl in a small town, smartest
girl in a small town, daughter of a small town judge/
Marcus A. Reno: /42. Looks older; always has. Square-faced and awkward.
Nondescript hair parted in the middle and slicked down; a wisp of a
moustache/
a chorus of 4 men and 2 women play all other roles: various men, women
and children participating in the events surrounding the battle of the
Little Big Horn, or "Custer's Last Stand"
/"In midafternoon of the 25th of June, 1876, five companies of the 7th
regiment of United States Regular Calvary, some two hundred and twenty
men, with Lieutenant and Brevet Major General George Armstrong Custer,
found themselves quite suddenly surrounded by several thousand hostile
Sioux and Cheyenne warriors among the low hills and gullies East of the
Little Big Horn River, in Southeastern Montana. There were no survivors,
and no one will ever know for sure how General Custer died or what the
nature of his "Last Stand" was. He was, by reputation, the finest
soldier on the Plains and his the finest regiment, by repute. And the
mystery of his passing haunts us all."/
/Character ages are taken directly from the script, but should not be
taken as hard and fast guidelines for casting.
/
If you have a headshot and resume available, please bring them with you,
but if you don't, don't worry. We look forward to seeing you at auditions!
