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. The only attention he gets is usually unwanted and due to his small size and very unfortunate headgear situation (his nickname is “Headgear Henry”).

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.

How do I find a legit casting call?

To find legitimate casting calls, start by using reputable platforms like Project Casting, which vets postings to ensure authenticity. Always research the casting company or director associated with the call. Legitimate opportunities typically don’t require payment to audition, and any contact should come from professional email addresses rather than personal accounts.

Can you audition without an agent?

Yes, you can audition without an agent. Many open casting calls and online platforms allow individual actors to submit directly for roles. While having an agent can provide access to more exclusive opportunities and handle negotiations, many new actors start their careers by attending open calls or self-submitting for roles online.

What is the difference between a casting call and an audition?

A casting call is a notice put out by producers or casting directors seeking potential actors for roles, inviting them to apply or present themselves. An audition is the process where actors perform a specific piece, like a monologue or a script, in front of the casting team after responding to a casting call. Essentially, the casting call is the request, and the audition is the response.

What is the best free casting call website?

Generally, you should not pay to attend casting calls. Legitimate casting calls and auditions do not require payment from actors. If a casting call asks for money to audition or to secure a role, it is likely a scam. The standard practice is that any fees associated with the casting process are covered by the production.
