Possible Acting Opportunity

So, I didn't look at scripts the night after the play.  I did, however, go on facebook and I noticed that a Christian film company is looking for extras in a feature film they are shooting in Fort Atkinson (about 3 hours from Shawano) this month.  Salty Earth Pictures, http://saltyearthpictures.org/node/18, is making a film called 'Mister Scrooge to See You.'  It follows Scrooge after 'A Christmas Carol,' and the impact he makes on those around him.  

I contacted the company to see if they could use any children, and heard back from the producer this evening.  They are looking for kids of all ages on Thursday, May 30, as well as Sunday, May 19.  There may be some other days as well.

I'm assuming there is little or no pay involved for these walk-on roles.  Parents would need to sign a release for their children to be involved.  If you're interested, please get back to me as soon as you can, and I'll forward your email to him.

That is so cool! Fort Atkinson is an awesome town-have spent tons of time with relatives there. For those interested in doing this, it is a neat town feel but is only half hour from Madison if you want to make a fun weekend trip. It is also home of the Fireside Dinner Theatre.-Ginger
