I'm absolutely excited and cannot wait to see the process of this production begin!
I've gotten such a great response with different types of people applying and now I'm going to make the deadline for the Doom Tree cast the end of December!
Here's the overall plot of the Doom Tree arc.
"In these episodes, Usagi Tsukino and her friends are reborn on Earth, having defeated the Dark Kingdom, with their memories of the last year erased. Two new transfer students, Seijūrō and Natsumi, join Usagi's class at Jūban Junior high school. Around the same time, two new enemies appear, calling themselves Ail and Ann. They had wandered space alone for many years before reaching Earth, where there finally find energy to collect for the "Makaiju" so that it can continue to thrive and give them regenerative energy. To do this, they drain the life energy of humans by way of creatures known as Cardians. Seeing the danger, Luna reawakens Sailor Moon and the rest of the Sailor Senshi to fight these enemies." - Wikipedia
Now onto the roles for this production!!
We are looking to cast:
Villains:
Ali takes on the persona of Seijūrō Ginga and lives with his "sister" in Jūban Odyssey Apartments. While trying to blend in with the humans at Usagi's school, Ail develops the role of brother to his girlfriend, Ann. He develops a crush on Usagi, and constantly tries to win her over, much to Ann (and Mamoru's) dislikes. He constantly denies these feeling to his girlfriend Ann due to her being known to have fits of jealous rage. Ail uses his flute to summon Cardians, allowing Ann to select which one he will summon.
Ann takes on the persona of Natsumi Ginga and lives with her "brother" in Jūban Odyssey Apartments. She develops a crush on Mamoru, and constantly tries to win him over, much to Ail's (and Usagi's) dislike. Ann's strongest trait is her fits of jealously induced rage. She tries very hard to impress both Ali and Mamoru.
Ali and Ann's roles are very close. People chosen for this MUST get along. They have a strong attachment to each other (as they are boyfriend and girlfriend) but are trying to come off as a sibling pair. Looking for a 2 males and 2 females around the same height to play these two!!
Makaiju, itself is an alien tree that nourishes Ail and Ann, but has become unhealthy and requires energy to stay alive. Originally it lived all by itself on a lonely planet that was covered with water. Then one day life was born from the tree's pods, and it was no longer alone. These life forms depended upon the energy of the Makaiju. They soon began to fight over it and they became consumed by hatred. They destroyed the planet and the Makaiju had to escape into space.
The role is very important. The role of the tree I would prefer to be played by a female. The role of this Tree I would like also in the future to play other villains, if the actress prefers to.
Sailor Senshi:
Ami Mizuno/Sailor Mercury
Usually calm and level-headed, she was the voice of reason of the Senshi
Rei Hino/Sailor Mars
**** THIS ROLE IS NO LONGER AVALIBLE****
Rei Hino is a hot blooded, strong-willed, somewhat bossy yet well-meaning girl who wanted to be everything from a globe-trotting business woman to musical idol, as well as have a boyfriend. She seemed to show her affection to the people she cares the most about in odd ways, such as her teasing Usagi or joking with Yuuichirou.Though Rei sometimes bickered with Usagi, she clearly cared about her and valued her friendship very much, and often seemed closer to her than the other Senshi.
Makoto Kino/Sailor Jupiter
A tough exterior with a gentle heart and unwavering loyalty. Makoto often spoke of going to China to learn about Chinese cuisine.
Minako Aino/Sailor Venus
Overly loud at times, a little obsessive, and slightly perverted. She was always true to her mission as a Senshi, however, and would do what was necessary to protect her friends.
Mamoru Chiba/Moon Light Knight
Mamoru's personality was very brash at first, especially toward Usagi Tsukino and, to a lesser extent, some of her friends, such as Makoto Kino. It was slowly revealed that his brashness stemmed from the fact that he was orphaned on his sixth birthday in a terrible car crash that left him with his first bout of amnesia, and therefore he had some trouble opening up to others on a deep level.
He is generally supportive of the girls, and does his best to cheer up Usagi and Chibiusa when they were upset, though he also sometimes struggled to keep up with their antics.
If you wish to apply for a character other than the ones listed please do! We will be having future performances including all villians and senshi (both inner and outer) though out these performances!!
