About the Job

Max

I Am A Gentleman

About the Job

18 to play 14-16, AMAB, Nonbinary or Trans Male, White, Los Angeles Local Hires. An adolescent still trying to figure out how to wrestle with his changing body chemistry and figuring out who he wants to be. Try as he might to suppress his aggressive tendencies, using the scant advice of the “Gentleman’s Guide” provided by his school, Max is a mess of conflicting emotions, bottled up impulses and raging hormones. This is a complex character… not an innately bad person. Will Max give into his basest urges (which his society excuses) or will he learn to rise above? Even Max is uncertain of the answer. Talent must be comfortable with intense material and portraying a violent situation. This actor will work closely with an intimacy coordinator, the Director and their scene partner to navigate a twisting and intimate scene with vulnerability, open communication and clear boundaries. LEAD. $241/day DEFERRED PAY (to be paid when it makes a profit)
