Box of Charms - Casting Call

Looking to get your sketches made or further propell your comedy career? Then Box of Charms, may be exactly what you need!

What is Box of Charms? It's a brand new six part, 20 minute online series created by
comic Connor Kent and directed by Max Clendaniel.

We’re looking for a cast of comedic actors and writers with all different backgrounds and humour to have their voice heard throughout the programme. Ideally we’d like to see
previous work whether it’s other sketches, scripts, or stand up to give us an idea of what you will bring to the project.

Once the cast and crew has been assembled, writers/actors will collaborate with Connor and Max to further develop characters and sketches, and the best content will head to
production in early Spring next year.

From there, the goal is to premiere the shows at Edinburgh Fringe next summer
followed by an exclusive release on Comedy Crowd TV.

If this sounds like a project you’re interested in or have more questions, then please
contact Connor before Friday 8th of November 2019- connorgeorgekent@gmail.com.

Connor Kent is a young boy that is no longer as young as he thinks.

That is me.

I've now got a couple of years of experience in all things comedy, and I'm looking throw myself head first into this project in the hope to further stretching my comedic muscles and colloborate with like minded and hugely enthuastic creatives.

Here's a little bit about my background:

I started performing stand up comedy in my hometown 6 years ago, which shortly allowed me to run a succesful open mic night.

I embarked on a UK Tour playing a character in Marc Wootton's 'Shirley Ghosman: Spooktacular' in 2016.

Over the past 2 years I've been lucky enough to work with some of the countries most exciting and talented comics and production crew whilst working on the TV show - 'Taskmaster.' My aim is to put to good use the skills I've gained during this time, whilst focusing on my own ambitions within the industry.

This year I completed the Logan Murray Stand Up Course and that really helped me build my confidence, not only as performer but also as a writer. And that's really where the idea for Box of Charms was born, feeling as though the ideas I've built up over the past 6 years, might actually be worth taking up off the page.

Therefor, this time next year I'd love to look back on one series of Box of Charms with great pride, with some lovely new comedy friends. I hope you feel compelled to be one of them.
