Showbiz Moms and Dads, Pay Attention!

If you're a kid between 3-15 years old, ... you're probably not reading this. But if you were, hypothetically speaking, you'd probably be dancing in your fancy pants once we told you about tomorrow's open casting call for How To Eat Fried Worms!

No, seriously, calm down.

New Line Cinema and Walden Media will be at the Holiday Inn Town Lake tomorrow from 10am-4pm looking for TONS of extras for their upcoming film adaptation of our favorite childhood book of the same title by Thomas Rockwell. We don't really remember the story anymore (we tend to get it confused with the poorly-titled but still hilarious Chocolate Fever, and My Teacher Is An Alien!) but we're pretty sure it involves a kid having to swallow a few creepy crawlers to win a bet and somehow ultimately learns some important life lesson (how's "Not Being a Jackass and Making Unrealistic Wagers" for one?). So it's no Harry Potter, but back then all we had was this or rocks.

And actually this casting call isn't just for kids - "its a family event!" [sic] So if you're between the ages of 3 to death, you should probably show up.

Open Casting Call
"How to Eat Fried Worms"
Saturday, July 9
10am-4pm
Holiday Inn Town Lake
512-495-1511 for info
