[Capdist-auditions] NOW CASTING: RespectAbility's Disabled Children's Content Creators Lab

[Danielle Pretsfelder Demchick]

Hi!

I would love your help spreading the word and would love to meet anyone and
everyone you think could be interested in the RespectAbility Disabled
Children's Content Creators Lab, which is NOW CASTING. SEEKING TALENT WHO
CAN WORK IN NYC AS LOCAL.

This is for the RespectAbility Disabled Children's Content Creator Lab
<https://variety.com/2022/tv/news/netflix-respectability-disabled-children-content-writers-animators-1235348694/>

FULL Breakdown attached and a recently re-released breakdown for additional
roles in WENDY ON WHEELS is posted on Breakdown Express and Actors Access,
and attached. *A social media flyer is attached as well, if you are open to
posting!*

**I truly 'need' performers of all ages *(adults and kids),* abilitie*s
(including invisible and visible disabilities)*, genders *(trans,
non-binary, cisgender, gender expansive),* cultural backgrounds etc..*
***you can specify the role(s) when submitting, or you can submit a
headshot and resume, and I can slot any performers in!*
**For several roles, we are specifically seeking performers of color who
identify as Female.*

I will be trying to cast all talent in multiple roles when possible so it
will be more bang for a talent's buck (ie. its $100 for the first role, but
I would try to throw them at least 2-3 other roles if possible, and all
additional roles are $50 each.)

This is a live reading for a developmental lab.

* Performers must be:*
*1. Available to work in NYC on 11/16 (and if they would be available for a
rehearsal on 11/15, that would be great)*
*2. OK with working Non Union (if a union member) for a Development Lab
(nothing for air etc)*
*3. OK with working for the rate ($100 for the first role, and $50 per
additional role, if applicable)*

Netflix & RespectAbility are in partnership for this, with major production
companies behind it as well (Silvergate & 9 Story)-I can't list that in the
breakdown, but wanted to flag it to you...

There is a lot of buzz around this and I anticipate a huge turnout in terms
of network/development execs from these companies, as well as a few others
(some even outside of kids media) who have asked me about attending the lab
performance...as well as casting directors etc....so it should be a really
fruitful event for the performers who participate, and if these projects
develop further...it could be especially HUGE!
