AUDITIONS for 'Nostalgia' Short Film @ Cleveland Public Library
by Perry Billett via NEohioPAL 02 Mar '17

02 Mar '17

*Production title: *Nostalgia *Union / Non-Union:* Non-Union *Production Type:* Independent *Project length: *Short Film (25 minutes) *Director: *Perry Billett *Audition Location:* Cleveland Public Library *Shooting Location: *Cuyahoga Valley National Park and Canton, OH (transportation and meals provided) *Email:* pnb22(a)case.edu *Compensation: *No *KEY DATES* *Auditions:* March 11, 2017 11:15AM - 4:00PM *(Please email pnb22(a)case.edu <pnb22(a)case.edu> to schedule an audition within this time frame)* *Shooting Dates: * Select weekend days March 18th - April 9th (flexible based on schedules of those involved) *Synopsis:* An accident from Nadia's young adulthood has wiped away her memory of the last six years. To help her recover, Nadia’s mother frequently takes her to an expansive self-help group. The longer she retains her memory, however, the more Nadia begins to question her involvement in the group. *Character BIOS* [NADIA] [GENDER: FEMALE] [AGE: 18-25] [estimated 3-4 days of shooting] Tries to be honest with herself and is always pragmatic, never hesitating to make a decision in which she believes. The honesty is largely undercut, however, by a lingering sense of insecurity about living up to the standards and beliefs set forth by her mother. [JACOB] [GENDER: MALE] [AGE: 20-30] [estimated 1-2 days of shooting] Scraggly facial hair/beard and unkempt hair as a result of living out in the woods in relative isolation. Has a genuine charm, humility, and intelligence about him, which allows Jacob to skillfully hide his subconscious sense of self-importance. Although he tries to be honest with himself and has good intentions, the trials and tribulations of Jacob’s lonely situation has left him in a constant battle between pride and desperation. [NADIA'S MOTHER] [GENDER: FEMALE] [AGE: 30-65] [estimated 2-3 days of shooting] Scrupulous in her principled lifestyle and in her devotion to family. She is good-natured but sometimes allows her deep-seeded fear of the unknown to guide her decisions and beliefs. (note - although not formally named, Nadia's mother features prominently in the screenplay) [BAUTA (nickname)] [GENDER: MALE] [AGE: 30-65] [estimated 1-2 days of shooting] Narcissistic but with an undeniable and manipulative charisma, Bauta's extraordinary intelligence and calculated decisions are only stunted by his grandiose self delusions. Who better to lead a self-help group? *The film will be shot on a *Black Magic Pocket Cinema Camera*, receive festival distribution, and be edited and distributed to those involved in a timely manner. As stated above, please email *pnb22(a)case.edu <pnb22(a)case.edu>* to schedule an audition or if you have any questions.

Show Information; Winner of the Tony "Triple Crown" for Best Musical, Best Score and Best Book, Avenue Q is part flesh, part felt and packed with heart. The laugh-out-loud musical tells the timeless story of a recent college grad named Princeton, who moves into a shabby New York apartment all the way out on Avenue Q. He soon discovers that, although the residents seem nice, it's clear that this is not your ordinary neighborhood. Together, Princeton and his new-found friends struggle to find jobs, dates and their ever-elusive purpose in life. Filled with gut-busting humor and a delightfully catchy score, not to mention puppets, Avenue Q is a truly unique show that has quickly become a favorite for audiences everywhere.
