  • Stoner-like look
  • a Highschool Student
  • sarcastic, disruptive, a provocateur
  • exposes weaknesses in other people, especially Kisch

Extras: (don't have to audition but there will be rehearsals for the dance-scene)

  • for the classroom-scenes
  • Highschool-Students
  • also for a dancing-scene (should be the same extras that are also in the classroom-scenes)

In the group chat on WhatsApp, you will find a link to a Google Docs file in the group description. There, you will find the entire script (we recommend reading it to better understand the characters).

The roles and their script excerpts for the auditions are also included in the Google Docs file. If you have time, you can sign up in the document, even if you just want to be an extra.
