OWN’s “Queen Sugar” Teen Dancers & Cheer Members

OWN’s Queen Sugar Teen Dancers & Cheer MembersOprah Winfrey has teamed up with “Selma” director Ava DuVernay to executive produce a new series called “Queen Sugar”. The new show will be airing on Oprah’s network OWN. The series is based on the name of the same name. It is said to follow a spirited woman and her teenage daughter as they leave behind their upscale L.A. lifestyle for their Southern roots by way of an 800-acre Louisiana sugar cane farm she inherited from her recently departed father, according to Variety. The series stars Rutina Wesley as the character Nova Bordelon, a formidable journalist and activist based in New Orleans. Her life, along with that of her brother and extended family, undergoes significant change when her sister, Charley, returns to Louisiana.

Casting directors are looking for teens ages 14-18 who can portray High School Dance Team Members. If you have dance or cheer experience then this is for you! They are open to teens of any ethnicity. Anyone who is booked must be able to provide a copy of their birth certificate and social security card. The shoot will be taking place sometime between March 25th and June 15th. The shoot date is still being determined, but it will be on a weekday.

The filming will be taking place in New Orleans, Louisiana so they need people who are local. The pay rate is 64.00/8 hours.  If you fit what they are looking for and want your shot at the show, email queensugarcasting@gmail.com. The subject line of the email should say Dance Team.
