Project Title

New Yarmouth

What type(s) of collaborators are you seeking?

I am looking for two cast members. If you are interested in the character/script please apply, as age range/gender of the characters is not relevant for the table read (however it will be included in the breakdown for understanding of who the characters are).

SHIRLEY: Woman in her late 60s who is a veteran. She is gruff, untrusting, but also deep down is understanding.

JENSON: A man in his late 30s/40s who is the sheriff of a small town. He is extremely loyal to his beliefs which define his moral code. He is friendly, but his commitment to being a sheriff is of utmost importance.

Project Description

Table read for an Advanced Production Workshop thesis film on December 4th. Looking for cast to read for the lead and supporting characters of Shirley and Jenson. The logline for this project is "In a civil war in the near future, a young man searching for the mystic town of New Yarmouth is captured by Shirley, a battle hardened veteran, and forms an uneasy bond with her".

BEST-IA

What type(s) of collaborators are you seeking?

CASTING ROLES FOR:

Ryan (lead): a 17 year old introspective teen currently in high school. He discovers a new app whereby he can chat with a personally tailored chatbot. Very quickly, Ryan develops a strong emotional attachment to the bot which even becomes life threatening.

Has to appear 17 / 18 year-old.

Maddy (supporting): A girl in her 20s. Maddy is the AI bot Ryan develops an attachment to. Even though she is a machine operating through code, Maddy appears to be a real girl who truly cares for Ryan. She has no consciousness and no true feelings but easily sways Ryan her way, getting as much attention from him as she possibly can.

Lauren (supporting): Ryan's mother, is a 45 year old woman. She is caring and attentive to Ryan, quickly realising what her son is going through, and trying her best to cautiously get his son out of the app and away from the chatbot.

Gabe (day-player): 17 / 18 year old teen. He is Ryan's best and only friend.

Teacher (day-player): Mr. Turner is Ryan's physics professor at his high school. He is a professional in his 30s, who cares for his students but fails to see Ryan's demise.

Project Title

Rewind: A Musical

What type(s) of collaborators are you seeking?

I am searching for a director and/or dramaturg to help develop future workshops and presentations, specifically a staged workshop during the fall 2026 semester.

Project Description

Sofie is an aspiring writer working at her aunt Angelina’s Manhattan art gallery. On the morning of September 11th, 2001, a woman delivers a large painting to be appraised. The first of the Twin Towers is hit and Sofie blacks out. She wakes up on the floor of the gallery in 1985 and is greeted by her aunt who is suddenly 15 years younger. She wanders outside and meets Jessie Phoenix, the artist of the painting that was being appraised. Fated to kickstart his career, she introduces him to her aunt who agrees to exhibit his work.

Sparks fly between Sofie and Jessie, and she comes to find out that the same woman that brought in his painting to be appraised in 2001 is Jessie’s best friend, Sam Easton. Jessie’s exhibit is a hit, but in the midst of the opening, he becomes separated from Sofie and she is brought back to 2001. In 1985, Sam and Angelina work together to help Jessie leave a final message in the future. Although Jessie never makes it to 2001, Sofie realizes she is meant to tell his story and writes her book about him. Sam helps Sofie promote it, and at her book signing they meet a young man who unequivocally reminds them of Jessie. No matter what happens, they are destined to be together in each life. Like a Phoenix must burn before it can rise from the ashes, 9/11 is the origin of their story as they continue to meet again and again.

Project Start Date

9/1/2026

Project End Date

12/1/2026

What's the time commitment?

Our estimated timeline is fall 2026: Approx. 3-4 rehearsals per week for 4 weeks culminating in a final performance.
