We need Dark Hair Olive skin looking talent. Latin,
Southern European Etc. They can have blue
eyes as long as they have Olive skin and Dark Hair or are
willing to dye their Hair.
Not Indian. Not Black. Not Asian. Not Scandanavian.
“To Do List”:
(if they already read for this have them come in again)
DAD – 30‐40. He should be distracted by his laptop…use a
real prop in the casting.. Use props
wherever possible please. Sit dad at table…he doesn’t
look at child until child asks if he’s on
that “very important list”…which is when I have to see
the “gotcha” moment on dad’s face as
he gets it and he changes from distracted adult to caring
loving dad.
Both
actors have to deliver their lines in Spanish. Send in Dad and Son on time slot
SON – 4‐6. Older doesn’t work unless there’s a 7 year old
who reads as a 5 year old. If you have
a killer 4‐6 year old girl I’m fine looking at few little
girls. This child delivers the “gotcha” line to
dad with such simple, honest, innocence it melts hearts –
it has to bring a tear to your eye or it
doesn’t work, period.
Both
actors have to deliver their lines in Spanish. Send in Dad and Son on time slot
“Pizza”:
TEENS, boys and girls, age 14‐18. Lots of energy, laughs,
talking and eating. Newspapers get
tossed aside, cups tipped over, napkins balled up and
thrown kinds of things – add lib. Each kid
should
deliver the line, “Kids these days”, in Spanish with a sense of fun and
apology. Sit the
kids around a table on chairs, with props. Send in Two
Teens Per time slot
WAITRESS, age 40‐55. A bit weary but resolved. Visibly
lightens us when the one Teen returns
to help her. Send on per time Slot
3 LADIES, age 50‐65. They notice the teens being a bit
boisterous and are VERY mildly
disapproving which turns to, “That’s cool” when the kid
comes back to help waitress.
Send in Two per time Slot
“Sweet 15”:
This is the spot where the talent can have some of the
indigenous Central American look.
3 Teens 2Girls – age 15. And 1 Teen Boy – age 15 Per time
slot Send 3 per time Slot
Parents – age 40‐50. Outdoor working class look. Send in
one mom and one dad per time slot

Mother – about 30. She should be carrying a laundry
basket full of laundry that she’s waiting at
the bus station with. When it begins to rain she takes
out a towel and tries to shelter herself
and her two young kids who are beside her, hanging onto
to her legs. Please try and find Moms
with kids they are familiar with, Own kids or friends
etc, It will help the kids act
Children – age 3‐5. They need to look like they are kids
