[NEohioPAL] Audition: Male and Female Child Role Feature film

[Ben Sliwa]

For the upcoming feature film: UNDER OVERPASSES 
Is having ideal freedom worth the price?
Four teens living on the street take a recent runaway
under their wings. The days to follow lead to reminders
of their forgotten pasts, and an inescapable fate. 
There will be open auditions for MALE AND FEMALE CHILDREN for a short film being produced by The 2380 Project*, through the University of Akron, and directed by Ben Sliwa.  
***  Both roles being casted for are unpaid and have no speaking roles.  The short film is a fictitious movie about a group of young adults whom experience the life of living on the streets. Their reality is depicted as our  reality seems. The parts being casted for children are symbolic to the progression of the story, as the young adults depict.  
Young Phox (Roger) is the young version of the lead character, 
Little Charley represents the innocence that all children have toward the troubles in the world. 
Maggie is the character Mouse's sister, She is featured in a flashback scene describing how Mouse's has become the way he is. *** 
Young Phox (Roger): ages 6-11 Representing the lead character's childhood self. And the reasoning for his running away. (Needs facial emotions that can show sorrow, and abandonment. Visual: brown hair)  
Little Charley: ages 6-11 Representing the innocence of all children in the aspect that they are naive to hardships of adult life, and poverty... Almost a 'factious' character . (Simple expression required.) 
Maggie: Ages 5 - 8 Representing Mouse's little sister. (sweet innocent delicate appearance.)
