My name is Gina Biggs and I am both the creator of Red String and the producer of the radioplay. This radioplay is a long-form project, so I only ask that you please do not audition unless you are willing to make a serious commitment to this project. I am seeking auditions specifically for the TEMPORARY recasting of the main character, Miharu Ogawa. Basically, I need an understudy who can take over for a few chapters for Cristina Vee while she is currently unable to voice the character (possibly become a permanent placing if main VA is unable to return).
Audition deadline - October 30, 2007 (end of the day, EST)

CHARACTER INFO
Name: Miharu Ogawa
Age: 16/17
Bio: Dyed-blond hair, trendy clothing, and an unusual knack for speaking up for herself, Miharu is an outgoing first year high school student who enjoys eating and hanging out with friends. She comes home one day to discover she's an unwilling candidate for an arranged marriage.
Voice type: I think Miharu's voice needs to be feminine, yet strong. She can be quite emotional at times, so good crying will be a necessary quality. It would be good (but not required) to
listen to the current VA's portrayal in the RP to get an idea of what I am looking for here.
Role type: Main character
Audition line 1: (thoughtful) I just can't decide how to feel. I like him a lot, but I feel guilty because I was so opposed to the idea.
Audition line 2: (crying) Y-you're not the one...! (pause) You're not the one I'm supposed to marry...
Audition line 3: (annoyed) I think formalities are fine.
Plaid doesn't suit you.
Audition line 4: (very angry) There's no honor in making a girl cry! You're the worst!
Audition line 5: (cute/teasing) Then
maybe you should come over more often and cook for me.
Audition line 6: (embarrassed) DON"T TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT, YOU FLIRT!
I've included a fair amount of lines so that I can get a good idea of your portrayal of the character. In conclusion, I just want to say that I really look forward to hearing your auditions. Hearing my characters brought to life in this way is amazing and your participation in this project is most appreciated.
