MARTIANS: Any age, race or gender. Inquisitive, clownlike and lacking any words but great at getting their point across with sounds, body language and gibberish. The Martians love working together with audience members to figure out why colors are causing them to feel things. A little unsure of what to do but they know that their audience friends have the answers, whatever the response. The definition of yes, and.
Please submit the following:
· Headshot and resume
· Location (city/state)
· A 60 second video recording of you telling a short story of discovery involving no language but sounds and movement encouraged.

About the show:
Join us as our dynamic Martian duo experience emotions for the first time. Guided through interaction with our youngest audience members, our Martians will experience the highs and lows of feelings and the brilliance of how colors and textures affect our mood. Through their journey, our Martians learn how even though we all experience feelings differently and react in unique ways to experiences, we're all stronger together by sharing and expressing our emotions.
