Hello everyone!
After 3+ straight hours of listening to auditions (and 45 years of typing this up), the jury is in and we have made our decisions. Please find the entire cast list below! As a note: this list includes every character, major to minor, cameo to recurring. If you don't see your name next to the character you auditioned for, check the other characters! There is a chance you have been given a part other than you expected. I will provide brief descriptions of these characters so you have a rough idea of who you're playing going in.
If you have been cast, please email me back at [email protected] and say '(my name) confirming for (my character name).' If you don't confirm your role, I am forced to assume you either didn't see this, don't approve of your character, or are no longer interested and may have to recast that role. I will give one week from today as a deadline for confirmations, and will begin going back and re-listening to auditions for recasts on July 21st for unconfirmed characters.
Thank you so so much to everyone who auditioned! If you didn't get a role, don't be discouraged. I had well over 100 auditions and couldn't give everyone a part! I had to put a lot of really great voices in minor roles or no role at all, but in my back pocket for the next project. Keep an eye out for my future projects, because I'd love to hear from you all again!
