My name is Lauren Farrell. I am 5'0" and I weigh 115 lbs. I have dark blue eyes, dirty blonde hair, and a lot of freckles. I am 13 years old and I am very funny and I have a great personality. I would love to be an extra in this movie and I would like to know more about the casting process. Thank you for your time.
Hi, My name is Kira McCrary. Something you might want to know about me is that I am no spectator. I refuse to allow myself to observe life pass me by. I set goals and when those goals have been reached, I set new ones. I love to work hard for the things that I want in my life.I wish that I could say that I have no weaknesses but that just wouldn’t be true (and I wouldn’t be human). I always save the best for last so I will tell you my weaknesses first. Although, I am in the second highest choir in my school, I do not believe that I have a natural born talent to truly sing. There is a very old timey tone to my voice and I think I sound like I should be on a 60’s record. I cannot read music very well yet, but I can listen to any song and repeat it note for note. I can dance and act and pour my heart out on the stage; which is exactly what I plan to do if I am chosen to be in Lincoln. Thank You

My name is Michaela Antoinette Rogers, and Im an actress. Acting entered my creative soul at the age of 12, in which I displayed my acting talents in a 7th grade drama class. I started to do plays in school and church events. Therefore, my love for the stage, character fantasy, and art began. I entered a summer acting program called Summer Institute of the Arts and I was there for 5 years (ages 12-16). I continued acting through high school and my senior year of college. I love what acting has to offer and that's creation of life! Furthermore, I’m on a journey to the true acting arena; Broadway and action/drama movies. I always say "I’m destined for greatness!"
My name is Asia Nolan, im Black and indian. My hair goes a little bit past my shoulders, and im a coco brown. Im 12 and i am 5'5. I think i would be perfect for the African American role. I live in houston Texas, to be specific fort bend.
