Looking for 11 characters:
- Harold (age 60 or up) – has just lost his wife
- Katie (30s or 40s) – Harold’s daughter; stressed out party planner
- Renee (late 20s) – Harold’s daughter; must be able to cry on cue
- Bobby (30s or 40s) – Harold’s son; Katie drives him crazy, always has
- Young Woman (20s) – sexy; has to wear low cut blouse
- Old Person (60 and up) – bit role, but essential to story; no lines, but ample screen time
- Man in Line (any age) – bit role with dialogue

- Man in driveway (30s or 40s) – bit role

This film takes place at Harold’s wife’s funeral reception, so even bit roles will have opportunities for more screen time. We will also need extras to fill the reception (all ages).
Actors will be asked to read a few pages from the script. Time will be available before audition to prepare. Please bring a recent headshot and resume to the audition.
