Synopsis: Priscilla as an adult, or ‘Adult Pri’ as we refer to her in-house, is a mild-mannered photographer that’s since given up the life of a detective. She’s optimistic, energetic, and a huge contrast to her younger self by the time she enters focus. This role will require a lot of acting, since the actions the reader may or may not take influence her growth(or regression) as the truth behind the Dart Killer cases come to light or remains hidden. A good candidate for this character will have a light, airy and expressive voice, but have the flexibility for tense, romantic and dramatic moments.
(Confused, to herself) “It’s left to like. Right to reject…. Right?”
(Angry) I had this crazy idea! That one day we’d meet again, have a laugh and go back to that diner-- (Defeated, laughing at her misery ) But nope! You're arresting me. (Angry, under breath) God, I'm so stupid.
(Serious, deadpan, or smug) But the burglar's blunder brought Bruno’s bite to his backside, leaving behind a bit more than bruises.
Just a note that I perform the lines first with a general American accent and then attempted a Philadelphia accent in the second half of the clip.
Being honest, I think I prefer your General American to Philadelphia English, through no fault of your own. The accent itself is pretty odd. I loved the delivery, though. You're on the deeper edge of what we'd consider appropriate for the role, but definitely within limits. Thank you for your audition.
