CASTING CALL! Actor's Express is seeking two ATLANTA-BASED performers for the World Premiere of "i never asked for a gofundme" by Jayne Deely! This warmhearted comedy follows Millie and her partner, Avery, whose nosy, evangelical family friend mistakes their top surgery for a battle with breast cancer. Stuck in the middle of small-town gossip and flooded with donations they never asked for, Avery must decide if being unapologetically themselves comes with a price tag. Scroll to explore character breakdowns and head to the link in our bio to submit your materials for consideration!
