SEASON ONE CASTING CALL

TRANSFOLK is an upcoming web series about a diverse group of transgender friends as they face the complexities of life, with the added struggles that come with being who they are.

At least for the first season, this project is non-paying, with the hopes that in future seasons we will be able to raise enough funds to compensate our cast and crew. Craft service will be provided every day of filming.

CAST OF CHARACTERS:

SERIES REGULARS:

Shannyn Archer – Male to Female, Early 40's, Caucasian. Shannyn is the den mother to her girls (and boys). In her old life she was married to Beth and they had a son together named Aiden. Since their divorce and Shannyn's transition, Shannyn was married to a gay bar owner named Andrew for 7 years. Andrew passed away of cancer a year ago and left the bar to Shannyn in his will. Shannyn has had a years long rivalry with Felina Leblanc who was Andrew's ex girlfriend. She is best friends with Piper DeLauro.
(Role Has Been Cast)

Piper DeLauro – Male to Female, Early 30's, Caucasian. Piper is shy but can be a firecracker when need be. She is the manager of her best friend Shannyn's bar, and enters into a complicated relationship with the barback, Caleb.
(Role Has Been Cast)

Neveah Skye – Male to Female, Early 30's, African American. Neveah is a hot headed diva who will fight for the people she cares about. She presents herself as a strong willed, on top of it woman, but her hard exterior hides an extremely soft interior. Her break up with her long time boyfriend leads her down the wrong road.
(Role Has Been Cast)

Logan Pierce – Female to Male transgender character, mid to late 30's, Caucasian. Short dark hair, somewhat heavyset. Logan is an elementary school teacher whose contract is not renewed for the new school year due to his transition.

Cierra Sifuentes – Male to Female transgender character, 19 years old, Hispanic. Short dark hair, thin. Cierra is just realizing who she is and is just now beginning her transition. This causes major problems with her family. Her life long best friend is Bailey who is a year younger than her, and is also a Male to Female transwoman farther along in her transition.

GUEST CAST:

Bailey Smithson – Male to Female transgender character, 18 years old, Caucasian. Long blonde hair (a wig can be used, but real hair is preferable), thin, very passable for female. Bailey is a super confident, passable transwoman. She's hot and she knows it! She's the outgoing, carefree opposite to her bestie Cierra.

Felina Leblanc – Male to Female transgender, early 40's, Caucasian. Felina is the long time rival of Shannyn Archer. She is the town !&#$! to most, but there is a reason for the way she is.

Georgia Smithson – Female, Late 40's, Caucasian, short blonde hair, plus size, southern accent. Georgia is the oh so lovable mother of Bailey who completely accepts and understands her transgender daughter and all transgender people. The kind of character that when you meet the actress that plays her you just want to give her a big hug.

Vivian “Vi” Murdoch – Female, Early 30's, Caucasian. A thin, “pixie-like” woman with a bubbly, life of the party personality and a sweet smile that hides her internal battle with drug abuse.
