Audition for New DCOM ‘Avalon High’
November 2, 2008 by Julie Bonner
According to Acting Info, Disney will start production on a new Disney Channel Original Movie. The movie is based on the popular novel “Avalon High” by Meg Cabot.
Auditions will be held shortly and they are currently casting for all roles. For the roles available and a description of each, see Acting Info.
Here’s the plot description:
Elaine “Ellie” Harrison has just moved from Minnesota to Annapolis, Maryland while her parents take a year long sabbatical to continue their medieval studies in nearby DC. Her new high school, Avalon High, seems like a typical high school with the stereotypical students: Lance the jock, Jennifer the cheerleader, Marco, the bad boy/desperado, and Will, the senior class president, quarterback, and all around good guy. But not everyone at Avalon High is who they appear to be, not even Ellie herself.
Eventually, it becomes apparent that Avalon High is a situation where the ancient Arthurian legend is repeating itself. Will, Jennifer, Lance, Marco, and Mr. Morton all correspond to King Arthur, Queen Guinevere, Knight Lancelot, Mordred, and Merlin, respectively.
What do you think? Will this be a popular DCOM? As soon as audition information is available, I will let you know.
