Description

IMPORTANT NOTE: Upgraded to PRINCIPAL despite ACTRA line count as Actor.

To play the role of a man in his 50s to late 70's. Please submit MIDDLE EASTERN Performers to portray Egyptian; character speaks Arabic ONLY. Seen in FB 1890's Egypt where workers lift an ancient Egyptian sarcophagus into a crate. The ANGRY LOCAL curses the descendants of whoever is responsible for the desecration of this tomb.

LANGUAGE / ACCENT: The Performer MUST be able to speak Arabic. The script is currently in English, but will be translated into Arabic. FOR AUDITION PURPOSES, the Performers will be asked to speak some Arabic in their slate, but being that we don't currently have the scene in Arabic, we ask that the Performers present the scene in English with an Arabic accent.
