Greetings!
My name is Stephanie Taylor and I am the writer and producer of the Student Film Snow. Snow is about a middle age mother who struggles to deal with a dying stepdaughter in hospice care whose last wish is to see the snow because of a memory of happier times.
You are cordially invited to casting day to audition for one or more of the following roles:
ALICE FRANKLIN – LEAD: A strong-willed, country woman in her early- to mid-40’s, overwhelmed by her stepdaughter’s march towards death, world begins to unravel at the seems. Normally she is in total control, but the passing of the love of her life, Aurora’s father, has left her feeling powerless. Everything she loves is slipping away from her and she has no idea how to handle death that causes her mood to be unpredictable. If left alone, whose knows what she is capable of?
AURORA FRANKLIN – LEAD: A 10-year-old child dying of cancer living in a hospice care facility in Florida. She represents everything good in the world - loving, caring, and kind. The most beautiful quality about her is patience. She sincerely believes that she will see the snowfall in Florida before she dies.
EDITH MILLER – LEAD: A strict, calculating woman in her late-50’s to early 60’s who is concerned about one person, herself. In her pastime, she enjoys ci******es and nagging her daughter, Alice, to the point of popping pills. She has no emotional attachment to her step-granddaughter, Aurora. She is only along for the ride when her daughter comes into town to visit Aurora.
NURSE (YOUNGER) – SUPPORTING: A shy, frazzled lady in her mid- to late-20s just trying to muster up the courage to do her job.
DIRECTOR (OLDER) – SUPPORTING: A strict but fair boss in his or her early- to mid-50s who rules his staff with an iron fist.
