Seeking Child Actors for Plays in Development

Actors needed for Plays-in-Development/PID Jr. Please see the details below. About the project: "The Following Is Based On A True Story": Representatives from Dorothy's House, a Wizard of Oz museum a few miles down the road, show up to picket the flashy Oz Museum, which they deem "a den of lies." Why? Because these women are the proprietors, so they say, of the true Wizard of Oz museum. In fact, they are the relatives of the original Dorothy, and though they may have some disagreement as to how the story really went down in their family lore, they know that this fake museum with its movie paraphernalia and wax statue is not only taking money that is rightly theirs, but is propagating the wrong story. Frank L. Baum, they say, got his brilliant idea from their family, on their farm, just 20 miles down the road. When a couple shows up to visit the picketed Oz Museum and runs into this quarrel between picketers and the museum's owner - himself decked out in an Oz costume and adorned by his two adorably costumed daughters - a conflict ensues. Which museum will the couple choose? The descendants of Dorothy and Aunt Em may lose this particular battle, but they have an interesting fact up their sleeves that will leave the audience wondering whether they aren't telling the truth after all. "The Albino Woman of The Kaw River Valley (Dun Dun Daaaaa!)": Ron and Randy visit an old woman to confront their fear of the legend surrounding her, but she is not what she seems, and it will turn out to be a night they will never forget. Dun dun daaaaa! "Discards": Mari and Lloyd, two widowed retirees, volunteer at a charity thrift shop. Everything is humming along without incident until two new volunteers arrive. Spark is a smart but troubled teenager who has been sentenced to community service for a crime he says he didn’t commit. Cherry is a recent divorcee looking to fill some time. The dynamics in the shop shift, with Mari resenting the intrusion on her territory (and her designs on Lloyd). Tension is not far from the surface, and then something goes missing and things turn ugly. A lighthearted romantic dramedy about aging, friendship, trust ... and love. Additional info: Auditions will consist of readings from the scripts. No experience necessary. No memorization required. 'Killing It' & 'The Following...'
