(auto-translated from Dutch)
Hi! We are a group of students looking to find actors for our historical student film about freakshows and its relation to gender expression in 19th century America. This is a story about self appreciation and being unafraid of self expression, a topic that our team finds extremely important. Our film will fully be in English, hence why we require actors with a believable American accent. A full premise can be found via the link below:

Description
Actor/transgender actress (20-25) to play Joseph Adams, a transgender woman who performs at a freakshow under the name 'Little Miss Loonie'. This is her way of being able to get by while embracing her hidden identity in a twisted way. Ideally, we’re seeking a transwoman who does not pass. However, we are also open to casting a cisgender man who understands the depth of this role. Has the ability to emotionally move the audience and can believably switch from confident to vulnerable. Main character.
Teen actor (15-19) to play a younger version of Joseph Adams. This is the age they run away from home. Has to be able to believably project anger and sorrow. Reads as masculine and has a slightly muscular build as a result of working on the family farm.
Middle-aged actor (30s, 40s) to play Edward Montgomery and Mr. Adams (double role). Edward Montgomery is a charismatic, but two-faced ringmaster of his own freakshow, while Mr. Adams is the struggling patriarch of the Adams family. We are preferably looking to cast one middle aged actor for both roles! Mr. Adams is only present in voiceovers. The actor must be able to modify his voice slightly to switch between roles. Captivating in front of an audience and skilled in playing irritation.
