Keyhole: Season One
Tiffany Perdue for Lieutenant Grace Booth
Grace is an avid language learner and a self-proclaimed polyglot. In fact, the main reason she left her sleepy town in the Yukon and joined the RCAF was to travel the world and put her skills to good use. However, she's very quick to point out she's not fluent in most of the languages she knows and as a polyglot she's a jack of all trades, master of few.
Grace is kind and compassionate, almost to a fault. When the merfolk first invade, she's not entirely convinced that it's not just a misunderstanding. She is twenty years old.
Since Grace is a mutilingual character, mutilingualism is an asset. Please list any other languages you speak on the recording. But if you only speak English, don't worry, your audition will still be considered.

I don’t think she’s trying to be disrespectful, sir. [pause] If I were to guess, her language likely doesn’t have a “Ba” sound, so she’s having trouble with your name.
It’ll be difficult, considering your tongue likely won’t have a textbook written for it. In fact, I’ll probably be the one writing said textbook.
According to the internet her language doesn’t exist. We’ve had rely on English immersion and, once she got to a high enough level, ESL textbooks written in English.
This audition has the best acting in it, excellent job on giving dynamics and real emotion to the read! I will be auditioning for other roles but you turn up the bar on acting for this project!
Aw thank you for the kind comment! Best of luck with your auditioning!!
I agree with Gabriel that you did a great job with this audition. Unfortunately, your voice didn't fit the character, so you didn't get cast. Good luck in the future though!
