Role: HENRY

Character Description: 

Male. 12- 14. Seeking talent who identify as LGBTQIA+. Henry is a quiet, sensitive, smart and accomplished boy who dreams of one day having the confidence of a mediocre popular kid. He’s got a big imagination and an affinity for drag queens: the ultimate confidence-havers.

SYNOPSIS:

Middle school is the new high school. The life of a preteen girl is tough. You’re 12 going on 13, while everyone else in the class seems like they’re turning 20. Everyone else is trendy, sophisticated, and well…popular. This is a story of two girls hilarious struggles to make it through these formative years, where every day is awkward and the most important day of their lives (!!). While the title, Popularity Papers, may suggest a show about how to become popular, at the heart of it this series is about discovering your authentic self and not trying to be someone else just to fit in. It captures the real challenges of being a tween girl and disarms them with humor, love, and friendship. It’s a show that proves failure is an option, humiliation is good for a laugh and middle school is survivable.

Lydia and Julie are best friends on the hunt for answers to history’s question: How does someone become popular? Through pragmatic (and not-so-pragmatic) testing and social experimentation, they’ll figure out what it really means to be popular and finally get answers to questions like, do you really need to ditch your real friends to become popular? Should you quit the things you’ll love just because they’re considered “uncool”

Roles: Melody ( RECURRING PRINCIPAL ) 

Character Description

Female, 14. Seeking talent who identify as LGBTQIA+. Melody is a quintessential emo/goth girl. A lone wolf with headphones, just coming to understand her queerness. Unlike her younger sister Lydia, Melody doesn’t need validation or popularity. She’d rather be sarcastic from the sidelines. She finds Lydia’s pursuits and attention-seeking annoying and loves taking her down a peg. But underneath her dry humour, ironic graphic tees and chipped black nail polish is a caring soul who looks out for Lydia and Julie, even though she’d never admit it.

He does his best to relate to Julie’s struggles with shyness and social anxiety, even if they are strange concepts to him, and is a wonderful father.
