Synopsis:
Comedic film that is dialogue heavy and depends on strong acting and a consistent tone. Our films have played at SXSW, Austin Film Festival, Cinematexas.

Character Breakdowns:
Local actors only. (AUSTIN)

• Angie (female, 25-35, all races): a newlywed and go getter who’s caught in an uncomfortable situation. While the piece is comedic, the role must be played in a serious tone. She’s the straight (wo)man in an awkward situation. Must have comedy timing and strong reaction chops.
• Beth (female, 35-45, all races): the head football coach’s wife who’s sweet but a little nuts. The character is over the top but played in a serious tone. Comedy timing a plus. Movie doesn’t work without her strong presence.
• Coach Lou (30-60, all races): No lines but will be heavily featured in short. Fit. Must be comfortable being filmed without shirt.
• Coach Glenn (30-60, all races): No lines but will be heavily featured in short. Overweight. Must be comfortable being filmed without shirt.
