09.05.2009 08:41:43 Wannabe a TV star? Head to the open casting call for the tween sitcom "The Wannabes," which will begin filming in Michigan starting next month.
(live-PR.com) - The first television series ever to be completely filmed and produced in the State of Michigan is headed to the metro Detroit area.
S3 Entertainment Group is partnering with Stern LeMaire Productions, Inc. to produce a tween sitcom called "The Wannabes".
The main actors featured in the half-hour tween sitcom are from the real-life Disney pop sensation "Savvy". In "The Wannabes" series,
the teens are desperate to become pop stars, but they attend a strict arts academy boarding school where they are only able to stick to the classics like ballet, instrumental music and Shakespeare.
After being punished to work in a local café, the teens meet the owner's daughter who talks her dad into letting the academy students rock out at the café, but they have to keep their identities a secret by wearing disguises.
The show was created by writer/producer, Doreen Spicer who wrote the Disney Channel's hit movie "Jump In!" The series is directed by Eric Dean Seaton who has worked on other tween hits such as "Hannah Montana", "Sonny with a Chance", "That's So Raven," "Cory in the House" and "The Suite Life of Zack & Cody."
People of all ages, sexes and backgrounds will be considered for various on-screen roles, but they will specifically be looking to cast youth between the ages of 9 and 15, with previous acting experience or a ballet proficiency on pointe. Other roles to be filled include adult female dance teachers, with either a French or Russian accent, along with a comedic adult male drama teacher.
