Actors and aspiring actors, here's a head's up!

The mini-series DreamKeeper will be shooting all around the Calgary region from May 1 to mid-August this year.

The cast includes some of the biggest Native acting names in North America.

The good news is they are looking for some new faces. There are more than 70 speaking roles to be cast, and the producers hope they will discover a lot of local people to fill them. Who knows? It might be you, or your sister or your cousin or your uncle. It could even be the beginning of a new career for some of you.

Native actors or aspiring actors who can be considered for this mini-series include the following:

? Elderly men and women ? Teenage boys and girls ? A five-year-old boy (who looks only three) ? A family of brothers (up to seven brothers)? A 10-year-old boy ? Middle-aged men and women.

Anyone who would like to be considered for one of these roles should go to the Edmonton Native Friendship Centre on Saturday, March 9, 2002 between noon and 6 p.m. only.

Organizers say they will be taking photos of everyone, so it is not necessary to bring your own professional headshots.
