OPEN AUDITIONS FOR THE CABLE TV SHOW

"THE HEARTBREAK CAFÉ"

"The Heartbreak Cafe" is a comedy/drama that has run on cable television in Orange County San Diego and Los Angeles since 1997. Positions are available for actors, extras and crew.

Actors, extras and crew who are chosen for "The Heartbreak Café" must enroll in the 3 unit class "Television Series Production", TV/Video 215, at Santa Ana College. Actors may only register after they have auditioned and been accepted. Crew members must have an interview with the instructor prior to being accepted and registering for the class. Rehearsals and tapings will run for 16 weeks and hours will vary. It will be necessary for everyone to be on time and stay until the conclusion, so the entire day should be blocked out. Agents for the actors must be notified accordingly.

ACTORS

Being selected as an actor on the show is based on auditions. Applicants should be prepared to perform a one to two-minute monologue and must bring a picture and resume to the audition (Polaroid and snapshot pictures are acceptable). Auditions will be performed for the producers and directors of the show. Callbacks for those selected will be announced soon after.
