Casting Call- Pedestrian Drama

Milwaukee residents and performers of all ages, sizes, experience levels, and backgrounds are needed for the “Pedestrian Drama” films. We want to represent the culturally and ethnically diverse population of Milwaukee.

If you can do a double-take or a pratfall like Buster Keaton or Lucille Ball, can dance in toe-shoes, are an elderly couple in love, have a bunch of active but well-behaved children, don’t mind standing in a downpour — to mention only a very few of the “types” we’re looking for – please come to our audition.

All roles are non-speaking, and those who are cast will receive a stipend for their time.

Availability December 27 – 30 is required, with later filming dates possible on weekends.

The films are for the Pedestrian Drama public art piece by artist Janet Zweig. Black and white film images of Milwaukeeans will be printed on mechanical flap signs inside five kiosks installed on five lamp poles at the eastern end of East Wisconsin Avenue. These silent flip-book films will be triggered by motion-detectors when Milwaukee pedestrians pass by.
