The actor playing this role should be 8 years old or appear to be 8 years old. He also needs to be light enough to be carried easily by a soldier. Ideally this boy should have curly hair, preferably blond. But this can be managed with a wig, if necessary.<BR>
<BR>
This actor will have minimal rehearsal calls and the only word we need to hear is “mother” or “Momma.” He has no other lines to memorize. We will arrange rehearsal times so that he is not out late. However during the final week of rehearsals and the performances he will be up late.<BR>
<BR>
Please be aware that this play deals with the horrors of war and the character is killed (offstage) during the play and is carried on by a soldier. The actor playing this little boy needs to be able to totally relax and play “dead.”<BR>
