Open casting call for "Millennials"

Hello everyone! I've got some exciting news! Pyxis Films will be teaming up with director Kristen Elizabeth Priest to produce our first ever feature length film, Millennials.

Millennials is a hilarious and heartwarming story about a group of college friends who spend their final  night together before parting ways the next day after graduation. Over the span of a single night, the eight friends experience love, loss, hilarity and discovery before being tossed into the daily grind of adulthood.


AUDITION INFORMATION
Auditions will be held in the Forest Roberts Theatre on the Northern Michigan University campus in Marquette Michigan on September 4th and 5th, 2013 with callbacks on the 6th and 7th.

For initial auditions, please prepare a short monologue and bring a headshot.
There will be cold readings of the script in pairs/groups and screen tests for callbacks.

We are also in need of a substantial crew with lots of experience for this production. Please see "crew call for Millennials"

CHARACTERS


Megan-22, is an introverted journalism major hesitant to graduate and potentially lose all her friends.

Jessica-22, is a soft spoken, dancer in a long term relationship with Matt, harboring a secret that she wishes she could tell. Must be able to dance as there is a small feature in the film.

Sam-21, is a flamboyant gay man with hope of becoming a famous drag queen in Vegas. He helps Matt with his sexuality. 

Evan-22, has a tough exterior--drinking and partying to the extreme. But little do we know, he is having trouble figuring out what to do with his life once he can no longer hold the title of college party king. 

Jules (JD)18, is Megan's younger brother preparing to enter the crazy college world. While something of a jerk, he is also a nerd in denial hoping he can be cool. 

Drew-18, is JDs’ best friend and Evan’s little brother. Drew is a super nerd who can speak fluent Elvish. 

Amy-19, is a beautiful mystery girl JD and Drew try to find all night who can also speak fluent elvish.
