After the Fall

Guys. Yesterday I had to tape an audish for casting in NY and I'm in loveeeeee with the project. I have a secret (not so secret) affinity for projects with a somber vibe. No idea why considering I base my life off of thinking positively and actively being happy........oh well...

Anyhoo, uggggggg LOVE this project. Here's the description: After 13-year-old MARIA, the beloved baby of her family, dies from a shockingly rare condition, her grief-stricken parents and older siblings struggle to make sense of their own lives. Maria's father JOHN becomes obsessed with building a children's hospital, but his single-minded focus comes at the expense of his wife BRENDA and their adult triplets MICHAEL, JULIE, and STEPH, until he discovers Maria's Diary and is reminded of the importance of family...

And here's the breakdown for the character I play, Steph: The intense, impulsive outsider and perpetual black sheep of the family, she clashes frequently with her parents, especially her mother, whom she views as unemotional and out of touch with reality. When her baby sister Maria dies, Steph leaves college behind and moves home to look after her mother and father. She takes a job as a barista at Starbucks but soon finds that her parents are even more determined to deny their emotions since Maria's death. Feeling stifled and frustrated, Steph splits town with a guy she barely knows...

..........................love............
