WAITRESS THE MUSICAL
BIRMINGHAM HIPPODROME and
WOLVERHAMPTON GRAND
CHILDREN’S AUDITIONS 
WEDNESDAY 13TH APRIL in BIRMINGHAM

Tony Award-nominated hit musical Waitress, which opened on Broadway on April 24, 2016, at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre and opened in London’s West End at The Adelphi Theatre in early 2019 to rave reviews. Following its successful run on Broadway, the show brought its all-female creative team to the UK — a West End musical first — when performances began at the Adelphi Theatre in February 2019. The production is now touring the UK and Ireland. Based on the 2007 motion picture by Adrienne Shelly, Waitress has a book by Jessie Nelson, a score by six-time Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles, and choreography by Lorin Latarro, and direction by Tony Award-winner Diane Paulus. Waitress tells the story of Jenna, an expert pie maker in a small town, who dreams of a way out of her loveless marriage. A baking contest in a nearby county and the town’s new doctor may offer her a chance at a new life, while her fellow waitresses offer their own recipes for happiness. But Jenna must find the courage and strength within herself to rebuild her life. This American musical celebrates friendship, motherhood, and the magic of a well-made pie.

CASTING BREAKDOWN
We are only looking for the following children’s roles:
LULU
The young daughter of the lead character, Jenna, is to play 4-5 years old. A sweet, carefree child appears in the last scene of the show. Should be confident and be able to engage in a small amount of dialogue and movement on stage and be happy to be lifted on stage by one of the adult actors. 
This is a small but important role in the musical. The production will be hiring two local girls to play the role of Lulu for the engagement in each venue.
PLEASE ONLY SUBMIT TO GIRLS WHO ARE 6 YEARS OLD OR YOUNGER. They must be under 4ft tall.
The role will be shared by two children in each venue. Please ONLY suggest children for either BIRMINGHAM or WOLVERHAMPTON at this time.  
They MUST live in very easy traveling distance of BIRMINGHAM and/or WOLVERHAMPTON – definitely no more than 45 minutes traveling door to door. If a child lives within traveling distance of both venues, they can be considered for both. Otherwise, please make it clear for which venue they wish to be considered.

“Breaking Fast with a Coca Cola.”

SAG/AFTRA Microbudget Agreement ($125/day)

Shoot Dates: June 10-12 in NYC

Writer/Director: Amy Omar 

Casting Director: Andrew Dahreddine

Producers: Karine Benzaria & Jordan Hart

TALENT MUST BE A NY LOCAL HIRE

Amy Omar is a New York-based Turkish-American writer and director, and recipient of the Wavelength “WAVE” Grant. “Breaking Fast with a Coca Cola” is a coming-of-age comedy that follows two Turkish American teenagers who decide to fast for Ramadan for the first time, longing for community and traditions of their own. Amy’s goal as a writer/director is to share compelling stories of underrepresented communities, particularly Middle Eastern, and create a platform for fellow filmmakers to push boundaries with their authentic narratives.

[ÖZLEM] Character is Female-presenting, 16 year old (18 TPY) first generation Turkish-American living in the Midwest. Dark hair, eyes, and skin complexion. She’s rebellious, and curious about her heritage and faith. Moody and morose, at times; often sees the glass half empty. Best friends with Ada. She could be a bit more tomboyish, sporty, less graceful and effervescent. Ideally seeking a Turkish actor for this role, but open to other MENASA actors. LEAD.

[IPEK] Character is Female-presenting, 40’s, Turkish. Ada’s mom. She is very much a modern, American mother but just happens to have an accent. She feels liberated being a working woman living in America (even in the Midwest), and she can be the woman she wants to be by not living in Turkey. She is sporty, wears pants and probably has longer hair in a ponytail or a half up clip. She isn’t traditional or super deferential to men / her husband- sees herself as an equal (i.e. she speaks up at dinner, drinks etc). She still has a few traditional bits in her though (you can’t rid yourself completely of your upbringing) and cooks Turkish food for her guests. 

Ideally seeking a Turkish actor for this role, but open to other MENASA actors. SUPPORTING.
