About the Job

SEEKING: White Male and Female friends aged 28 to 39. *IF YOU WISH...an actor selected for this role could recruit their acting or non-acting friends to audition with them! LOCATION (portrayed): Nebraska Rural Yard, Friends Coookout STYLE: • Utility style: denim cut-offs, sun-faded tees, plaid over shirts • Footwear: boots, sandals, barefoot in grass • Maybe one character with a cowboy hat but grounded, not kitschy • Can incorporate native textile and cues, but don’t go overboard CASTING CUE: Avoid stereotypical cowboys or over-performed ruggedness. ——— ‣ Age range: late 20s to late 30s ‣ Mix of body types, genders, and regional accents ‣ first-generation ranch kid. A more modern take on “cowboy” TONAL NOTE: Spacious, human, quietly progressive. This vignette could introduce a bit of “breath” into the system. Think fewer people, more land and longer mental pauses. The tone is relaxed, grounded, and emotion-ally open. The group dynamic can matter more than the setting here as conversations linger and silence is allowed and expected. Laughter is earned after something is accomplished. It is not a constant. The senti-ment of joy being captured here is performance being reward with shared presence and commu-nity. This scene subtly expands what rural Americana looks like — without “making fun” of other “rural” settings or calling a negative attention to itself. CREATIVE OBJECTIVE: This vignette aims to subvert the “Montana stereotype” by presenting a version of Americana that is expansive, emotion-ally textured, and quietly progressive. The cookout isn’t about spectacle — it’s about presence. Time stretches. Conversation lingers. Joy shows up in small, unscripted moments.
