PRINCIPAL CASTING:
We're on a special casting search for a feature film, “REIMAGINED,” produced by the phenomenal Bob Graf.
FELIX, 13 (lead role), grieving the loss of his mother, struggles to cope w/the changes around him. Through his determination to keep his mom's legacy alive, he finds his voice & confidence. Felix transforms from a stuck kid into an incredible leader who embraces change & reconnects with his family & community. He realizes he can move forward without letting go of the past, merging his mother’s teachings w/newfound strength & his wildly imaginative creativity.
Synopsis: A beloved annual Christmas pageant is on the brink of falling apart when one boy, who hears the music others don’t, may be the only chance it has to survive. 13 y/o Felix struggles to preserve his late mother's legacy by saving the beloved Christmas pageant she once directed. Faced w/a new director's sweeping changes & a missing star performer, Felix rallies his friends & discovers his own creativity to bring the show to life in this imaginatively inspired twist on a traditional Christmas pageant. Through resilience & the power of community, Felix learns to honor his mother's memory while stepping into his own future.
NOTE: FELIX doesn’t need to say a word – for us to see the world in his eyes. His quiet moments & nuances are key. He is NOT an actory "Broadway" kid (if it feels like he's "acting" or over-the-top, it's not right for this role). Ability to carry a tune a plus! If so, please mention.
