The Chronicles of Narnia Audio Drama (ROUND TWO)

The Chronicles of Narnia Audio Drama (ROUND TWO)

Project Overview

Welcome to both new and returning auditionees!  Part 1 of the project is well underway, and now we are starting up Part 2!

SUMMARY (part two):

It's been one year since the Pevensies and Elaine have returned from Narnia.  Since then, they have befriended another girl, Eva, who moved into a nearby house shortly after them.  Eva quickly has become a close friend, but she also knows that the Pevensies are hiding something from her.  Peter and Elaine, who still consider themselves husband and wife, are facing tension in their marriage.  While waiting at a train station to take them to boarding school, all of them, including Eva, are whisked back to Narnia.  Their excitement soon turns to dread when they discover their old palace in ruins and later learn that 1300 years have passed for the Narnians.

After saving a dwarf named Trumpkin from being drowned, the Dwarf tells them that many years ago, the Telmarines invaded and took over.  Their only hope is to find the young Prince Caspian who escaped from the castle on the run from his evil uncle, Miraz, who wants him dead so he can take over the throne.

Meanwhile, Caspian's older sister, Cassia, remains in the castle as a firm supporter of her uncle and his ideology.  However, she is thrown for a loop when Narnians she had believed to be extinct turn up, and she believes them responsible for her brother's disappearance.

The Pevensies, Elaine, and Eva soon find Caspian who had called them to Narnia with Susan's horn.  Against Caspian's advice, Peter leads a raid on the castle to prevent a battle with the Telmarines.  It is during this raid that Caspian and Cassia learn that Miraz murdered their father 18 years ago.

The raid fails, many Narnians are killed, Cassia becomes a prisoner of war...and then Caspian and Eva nearly release an old enemy.  Peter, Elaine, Caspian, Eva, and the others must all learn to stop trying to do everything on their own and remember who is really in charge in Narnia before the Telmarines wipe out the Narnians for good.

RULES:

1) I am always willing to be flexible with deadlines as I understand real life has to come first, but I also won't wait around forever and will recast if you prove to be unreliable.

2) The actors cast as Edmund, Eva, and Caspian MUST be in this for the long haul.  It usually takes me anywhere from six to nine months to complete an audio drama and in this case I'm doing essentially two.  While having two different actors playing the same character in different parts won't be the end of the world, it will overall sound much better if it's the same person.

3) Give me emotion and feeling in your audition!  I have always leaned more towards voice actors who exhibit true passion in their voice.

4) Please be open to the idea of accepting a role you did not originally audition for.

5) Minor characters will have the option to audition for roles in Part 3.

6) All minor characters (except for Prunaprismia and Glozelle) and extras will read for multiple characters.

7) In the character descriptions about "Parts needed for", if only "2" is listed, that means the character is only in Part 2, not that the character is in 2 parts.

8) Mic quality will play a huge role in casting decisions.  If you receive a better microphone, you will need to submit a new audition rather than just tell me you have one.

9) When I cast roles, I also look at your CCC profile.  The style of it (i.e. good grammar, the amount of information you supply, a profile picture) can influence my casting decision.

10) Communication will be done entirely through email, so you must have an email address that you check regularly.  I will send cast-wide updates through Discord, so while one is recommended, it is NOT REQUIRED to audition.

*This role is being recast from Part 1 to be played by a male as his voice has now broken*

Edmund is the third Pevensie child.  While he has greatly matured since he first arrived in Narnia, he still remains a sarcastic and cheeky person.  However, he is also kind and brave and looks out for all of his siblings, especially Peter.  During the last year as they've all waited to return to Narnia, Edmund has become very close friends with Eva, who was staying at another house near the Professor's mansion.  When she comes to Narnia with them, Edmund finds himself struggling to admit to her what happened with the White Witch.  Later on, Eva almost accidentally brings the Witch back, and Edmund finally shares that he too fell for her charms.  The whole event brings the two of them closer together and they admit that they have feelings for each other during Caspian's coronation.

Eva

Role assigned to: SophiaOrchidVA

Eva is a young girl who befriended the Pevensies shortly after they returned from Narnia, and is best friends with Edmund.  She is rather immature, treating a lot of things like a game and rarely taking things as seriously as she should.  This stems from her parents trying to shield her from the horrors of war by downplaying it or just not saying anything.  Eva always feels left out among the others and when she is pulled into Narnia with them, she understands why as she learns that they are all royalty.  She struggles with reconciling the image of the children she has come to know with the kings and queens they used to be.  After watching Elaine nearly die in front of her after a failed raid, Eva wants to do whatever it takes to go home and nearly releases the White Witch again thinking that she is helping them.  She is horrified at her actions, but Edmund confesses his own struggles with the Witch and tells her how easy it is to fall for her charms.  Eva is then sent to find Aslan with Lucy and she meets the Great Lion for herself who tells her that she has done well by learning from her mistakes.  At the end of the story, Eva is named a Lady of Narnia, and she and Edmund later confess their feelings for each other.

Role assigned to: Austin AO Murphy

Caspian is a young man who is destined to rule the kingdom, but his life is in danger because his uncle, Miraz, wants the throne for himself.  After Miraz's wife gives birth to a son, Caspian flees the castle into Narnian territory, having to leave his older sister behind, and discovers that all of the stories he had heard growing up are true.  He uses Susan's horn which calls the Pevensies, Elaine, and Eva into Narnia, but when he meets them two days later, he is surprised to find that they are only children.  All of them raid the castle in an attempt to overthrow the Telmarines in one fell swoop and avoid battle, but the plan goes horribly wrong, particularly after Caspian and his sister, Cassia, learn that Miraz killed their father then lied about him dying in his sleep.  Caspian, angry at the failed raid and Peter's poor leadership, nearly releases the White Witch back into Narnia by accident.  Once he realizes his mistake, he starts working together with the others and fights alongside them in the battle against the Telmarines.  After the battle is won, Caspian is crowned king by Aslan and promises to restore peace between the Narnians and Telmarines.

Cassia

Role assigned to: dulcerosita

Cassia is Caspian's older sister.  After her father died when she was five years old, Cassia grew to hate stories of Narnia and Aslan because they had done nothing to save his life.  She is a very kind woman, but she also has a very sharp tongue, especially when people question her authority.  While she is confident and passionate, she is also easily led astray by her uncle, Miraz, who says all the right things to manipulate her and gain her trust.  When Caspian and the Narnians raid the castle in an attempt to prevent a battle, Cassia learns the truth about her father's death: he was killed by his own brother.  Devastated and ashamed, Cassia apologizes to her brother for years of arguing with him, then leads the Telmarine soldiers in the wrong direction in order to give him time to get out of the castle.  Cassia is thrown into the dungeons by Miraz who confesses that he only ever saw her as a means to an end.  He takes her to the battlefield with the intention of killing her in front of her brother, but a Telmarine soldier who is loyal to the Narnians, Drystan, frees her.  Cassia runs to the battlefield and saves Caspian's life and then becomes his advisor once he becomes king.  She strikes up a quick friendship/mentorship with Eva and a budding romance with the soldier who saved her.

Role assigned to: Tim the Enchanter

Miraz is the tyrannical ruler of the kingdom.  While he is not officially crowned king until after the failed raid, he has behaved as if he had been ever since Caspian's father's death.  He is a man who craves power and doesn't care who he has to trample in order to get it.  He has manipulated Cassia for over fifteen years to gain her trust and manipulate her to do what he wants, and it is later revealed that he killed his own brother then lied about him dying in his sleep.  Once Cassia learns the truth, Miraz throws her in the dungeon and plans to execute her on the battlefield so her brother can watch.  However, before this can occur, Miraz participates in a duel with Peter and though he leaves with his life, he is then immediately killed by one of his own comrades who wants the power for himself.

Role assigned to: Gigaphone

Trumpkin is a Narnian dwarf.  He is initially captured by the Telmarines, but is saved by the Pevensies.  He has a very tough demeanor, but this is mainly due to being hardened by years of being ruled and forced into hiding by the Telmarines.  He begrudgingly leads the Pevensies, Elaine, and Eva to where he last saw Caspian, and even though they give him no small amount of grief, he somewhat befriends them.  Despite his small size, Trumpkin is an excellent fighter and joins the others on the raid on the castle and then leads the archers in the battle against the Telmarines.  When the Pevensies have to leave Narnia, he is deeply saddened by their departure, even if he would never admit it.
