*What to Prepare*- Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script.
Please bring a resume and current headshot if available.

*The story*- The plot concerns Robert and Jeff, two old friends who are
taking their theater partnership (Jeff writes the plays, Robert directs
them) to the big screen in their first film. They've saved filming the
final and most important scene of their movie for last; a complicated
outdoor sequence involving hundreds of extras portraying disillusioned
marines jogging at sunset. All is going seemingly well, until suddenly yet
slowly, three cows walk directly into the shot. In response to this, some
colorful language is exchanged. After some deep contemplation of whether or
not one could feasibly find cows on a marine compound, let alone in Guam at
all, Robert has somewhat of a mental breakdown as the sun continues to set
"seemingly faster than it's ever set before". This causes Robert and Jeff
to question their work, their relationship, the artistic health of
contemporary film-making, and the ethics of shooting cows with firearms.
The other two roles are a hard-nosed manager (Reuben) and a geeky
production assistant (Craig).
