JRcasting is a full service casting company working with Union and Non-Union talent for TV/Film/Comme We are personally involved in the entire casting process.

Jean Rohn and Kelly Gallagher are Casting Directors in Minneapolis, Minnesota that work with Union and Non-Union talent for film, television, commercial/industrial, print and new media. After moving from the New York market to Minneapolis, Jean and Kelly opened JR casting in 1994. In New York Jean started as a talent agent for numerous agencies and then was hired as Associated Casting Director f

or ABC’s “All My Children”. (She still remembers Susan Lucie introducing herself on Jean’s first day.) While at “All My Children” she was voted into The Casting Society of America. Kelly started as an Actor/Director/Stage manager in New York and was dragged behind the camera when he partnered with Jean in 1994 in Minneapolis. They both have over 30 years of experience in the “Biz.”

We pride ourselves in helping the Director and Creative team achieve their vision.

Our long-time experience and credentials have made JR casting an invaluable commodity to producers and directors in ad agencies and production companies across the country and around the world.

Two Casting Directors go to the Minnesota Zoo to see the Jack O’Lantern .

We went to the MN Zoo Monday night to see over 5,000 illuminated of all different sizes, shapes and faces creatively carved and displayed from ground to tree top.

They did it up right – lighting your way to the display with orange lighting and music to get you in the mood.

A beautiful sight to behold. And big fun. Don’t miss it!
