If you could tryout for a part

[THE LADY OF MIDNIGHT]

If you could try out for any part in the Abarat movie, which character would you most like to play? Or would you rather just be an extra? Explain.

[laniemel]

I would like to be in a couple of extra's roles. First off, in YDD and then later in in Babilonium. I think in being an extra you would have more time to investigate the sets and just run around being crazy rather than having an actualy role where you would be busy learning lines.

[enigmaticpoet]

I'd extra, I can't think of any role I could play, although I'm a fairly decent actress. I'd be a freak on Bablionium maybe, or a pirate. *sigh* If only there was a role I'd be good in. Maybe Letheo, if I was a boy. XD But it would certainly be extras roles for me.

I would love to be an extra to see the sets of the movie without really having to learn lines and be retricted to time and a place. So I can wander and see if these people know the Abarat that well.

I LOVE acting, and I have been searching all over the internet for auditions! They'll probably be held in Los Angelos, since that's where a lot of the Hollywood peops are, and where Clive Barker himself lives. And I live only a few hours away driving from there! =P

I'd want to be Candy... it's definitely ambitious, but I've even practiced acting as her before. To act as Candy Quackenbush in the movie would be like a dream come true! And I know Princess Boa doesn't look like Candy Quackenbush, but I have a twin, and she could like I dunno be Princess Boa xD I'm even 16, like Candy in the second book D: D:

If I couldn't be Candy... I'd be a stitchling! Yeesss... that would be awesome. Or maybe one of the Fantomaya... no I don't look old enough for that =P I'd take any ol' role they threw at me, though! Even if it was voicing one of the Johns! That would be totally cool! Hey, I can sound like a boy if I distort my voice enough >=P

[Kate]

ah, hm. In a fantasy world i guess i would be Candy.

[galilee]

I would have to say Carrion. I already have a shaved head and kind of an imposing body type...

[inkstitchling]

I'd be the costume designer!

(okay, I know that's not an actual role ;_;)

If I was in the movie, I'd love to be Diamanda.

[Abaratian]

Hahaha! My friends tease me that I should be Candy. I'm from the South, but I have a Minnesotan accent. Not a heavy one, in fact, it's a very faint accent that only comes out on my "o"s, but a noticeable one.

I am a good actress, if I do say so myself. I don't think that I could actually be Candy, though. I don't look like her or anything. Maybe I'd just be an extra, like someone in Candy's class or someone in Babilonium. I'd love to play someone in a lot of makeup, actually. That would be really fun!

[malingomango]

ah this is kate again...god its creepy to meet yourself twice on here. but i'd still audition to be candy in my own fantasy world. hahaha

[barkerfreak13]

Mater Motley! I love evil and I'd be completely covered in make-up! ;D

[neianna]

I think I wouldn't want a huge part, one of the fantomaya would be fun or mater motley...being evil is so much fun after all!

[RedStockings]

I want to play Boa. I know not many people like her, but I do. Wouldn't trust her though. But at least I'd get to dress up all pretty, and wouldn't have many lines to learn. Plus I think she'll make more of an appearance in the later books.

[caitycat66]

Boa or Candy would be fun. Or an extra. Either one would be so COOL!!!! Of course, that would involve being any good at acting...

[Usagi]

I would....do the technical side! Lights, camera, action and all that jazz!!

I'd build and paint the sets, that would rock. However, they usually don't let you do both when you get way up there. O.o

I'd love to do the camera, even though I do theatre and would have no idea how to work it. XD It'd still be fun, though.

And a random extra would be nice as well. Crazy clothing, hair and make-up. Someone from Maraposa St.

[tarak1028]

It would amazing to be able to say I played the main character in one of my favorite series, but I don't think I could pull off Candy XD If they included such a minor character in the movies, I think being Tria would be cool. My dad says I look waiflike anyway I'm generally known for being small and pale, and some kid said I had a very vacant expression on my face.

Either that, or a stitchling extra =) I think that would be intense.

[RedStockings]

Playing a stitchling would be awesome! But getting in makeup/costume would take aaages.

[caitycat66]

Lol, good luck with that Galilee.
