Thanks to the nearly 1,000 people that showed up on Monday! What an incredible call with so many talented people showing up!

Good thing we had 16 wonderful professionals running the open call. They made the process efficient and kept things organized, even during the crowded times.

We’ve heard from many who were very thankful the casting assistants took the time to get to know a little about each person before auditioning.

It’s going to be so hard making choices!
