Alright! I'm getting started on my newest series, which means it's time to start casting! You can find out more about the series here!
 * Role: Rhiannon Harold
 * Gender: Female
 * Age: 14-17 (to play 15)
 * Character Summary: The fifteen year-old middle child of the Harold family. Better known as Rhi, she's a musical theater geek and a painter. She's mostly an observer, preferring to watch what's happening than to openly participate, and one of the gimmicks of the series is cutting to her thoughts on the situation. Her quietness in public often leads to her having a lot of things to say with her family or close friends, where she feels most comfortable.
 * Notes: I'm not looking for anything specific for her. Kinda your typical female lead, but obviously she needs to have a familial resemblance to the rest of the Harold family.
 * Billing: Series Regular
 * Role: Destiny Harold
 * Gender: Female
 * Age: 12-14 (to play 13)
 * Character Summary: The youngest member of the Harold family at 13. Destiny calls herself a gamer, though she isn't very good at most of the games she plays, and also plays some clarinet (though she doesn't like it). She's a huge tomboy, and her specialty is sarcastic comebacks.
 * Notes: I'd like someone who has some good tomboy-ish pictures. Blue jeans, t-shirts, hats, etc. Definitely not someone who typically wears dresses or skirts. Also needs to have familial resemblance to the rest of the Harold family.
 * Billing: Series Regular
 * Role: Gwyneth Dunne
 * Gender: Female
 * Age: 14-17 (to play 15)
 * Character Summary: Rhi's best friend and fellow homeschooler. They met at the co-op and bonded over their shared love of Broadway musicals (specifically, Wicked). She's very talkative and a little ditzy, but denies the cliche by also being a huge sports fan.
 * Notes: Someone sporty and really girly is perfect for this role. Blonde is a plus but not necessary - I don't want to go too cliche or type-casting with this role. It would also be nice if I could cast actresses who interact a lot in real life as Gwyneth and Rhi but if that's not possible then I'll be fine. My manip skills need work anyway.
 * Billing: Series Regular
 * Role: David Harold
 * Gender: Male
 * Age: 15-20 (to play 16)
 * Character Summary: The sixteen year-old eldest Harold kid. David is preparing for his senior year and heading off to college and realizing just how much homeschools are really set up to fail by the government. David enjoys working with computers, including designing video games, and plans on going to college for that.
 * Notes: Nerdy/geeky/dorky. That's about it, besides familial resemblance to the other Harolds.
 * Billing: Series Regular
 * Role: Kit Smithson
 * Gender: Female
 * Age: 12-14 (to play 13)
 * Character Summary: Destiny's best friend. Kit is homeschooled, but intends on going to public school for high school. She and Destiny are a lot alike (both like video games and are sarcastic, though Kit plays piano and enjoys it as opposed to Destiny's clarinet), and Rhi notes that if she didn't know them she would believe they were twins.
 * Notes: Basically the same as Destiny. Big plus if the two actresses for this role look similar.
 * Billing: Guest Star (Recurring)
 * Role: Bruce Thompson
 * Gender: Male
 * Age: 14-17 (to play 15)
 * Character Summary: Another one of Rhi's friends from theater. Unlike Rhi and Gwyneth, Bruce is public schooled, though he wishes he was homeschooled. He's also the object of Rhi's affections, though he is unaware of this. He plays almost every sport he can, including football, basketball, baseball, and track.
 * Notes: A jock, but kind of a dorky jock if that makes any sense. Someone who looks like they could play sports, but also wouldn't stick out in a group of theater geeks. And chemistry with Rhi.
 * Billing: Guest Star (Recurring)
 * Role: Ryan Birch
 * Gender: Male
 * Age: 12-14 (to play 13)
 * Character Summary: Carla's son. He's the same age as Destiny, and though Carla and Rachel believe them to be friends, they absolutely despise each other. However, they pretend to get along whenever their parents are around, since it's often what keeps them from arguing. Despite not getting along with Destiny, he has a crush on both Gwyneth and Rhi, and often abuses his forced friendship with Destiny to get close to them.
 * Notes: I don't have anything really specific in mind for him. Maybe a little pretentious, definitely a little annoying, but in an endearing way.

...There's a lot of female roles in this show. Sign up some actors and actresses please! :D
