The show that will be looking for actors is called 'The Purgatorians'. I have made a series of specials for character introductions which I shall link here. I compiled them all into one. The intro and Outro of each character gives more information on them as does the songs chosen. The intro gives you some lore. Please be aware this is filled with the old cast, who I would love to have back, but times, and trust, change. Take notes of the songs in each segments intro and outro. They will give you a clue to the characters personality.
Also the previous cast interviews to find out more about the show and what it is like working with me are in this video.
The setting is Serenetia, (Ser-ren-she-a) a strange land in which no-one travels to, they just appear. No-one knows how or why they are there, they just are. They give up looking for home when all seems hopeless and exist there. With a corrupt government, a sadistic council of five and the Purgatorians to deal with, not one month can pass by quietly., this is without the deadly sandstorms that wipe out all but a handful of people, and the Purgatorians, in Serenity every fifteen years. Ten years after the last sandstorm the hero of prophecy arrives. The prophecy tells of the demise of the council and its members and the downfall of 'The Liberator', the leader of the Purgatorians but it speaks not of the Asylum itself. With twists galore and containing some scenes people may find upsetting or offensive. This is not a fantasy show, it is centered around real life but in a not so real place. It contains some hard hitting storylines, dramatic and sad. I am hoping the show can run for a while, 5 seasons of 27 episodes each. Also 5 feature length Christmas specials and anthology episodes that will give too much away right now if I tell you what they are about.
To the 2015 cast. I owe you all an explanation. I hope some of you see this.
As you all know, I was in constant communication with you, then it suddenly stopped. Someone moved into the flat above me, started victimizing and terrorizing me to the point my nerve were a quivering wreck. I could focus on nothing but fear for months. Then one day he kicked my front door in and really went at it. The police took him in for questioning but released him without charge. I had to flee, leaving all my possessions behind and never returned for them. I ended up homeless for months and I lost all your contact details, I never even thought about checking this site until the other day. I completely forgot about it.
I understand there are no excuses for leaving you high and dry, and I still feel very guilty to this day. Even if you did not want to return to the project, I really hope you can forgive me.
The Project
Now, this project is huge and, although a bit hypocritical from what I have just wrote, I need commitment. By this I don't mean never take other jobs. I mean you do not drop out halfway through a season. A season consists of 27 episodes and there are 5 of them. If you are interested in a role, I advise watching them all in the video as it gives lore, details and some, but not all of the characters.
The story is very dark. One of those stories has the first part of it in the linked video above. No character is safe, no matter age or gender. Think Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead just killing major cast members.
Don't forget it will be paid and I am in a more secure environment now so there should be no more fleeing. Also main characters will get 10% royalties split between them if the show makes a profit, secondary characters 5% split between them
I offer my huge apologies to the original cast once more. Here are two little parts of the scripts. The first is emotional, the second dramatic.
Before going to college, I acted in my local Amateur theatre for 3 years and I loved it. I started out with being an extra in panto but that got me noticed as they said 'I made the character my own' even though it was just a background part. I also learnt all of Buttons lines within a couple of days just in hopes he would be sick one day. He never was but I was never asked to do it.
I also did a video editing course in when at college. Even though I still consider myself basic in it, I passed.
