Default Open casting call! The DT playahs proudly present...

The new and improved, amazing and uber, shiny and wonderous version of A Christmas Carol. Hooray!

The title was misleading and for that I apologize.

Your task is to cast the damned thing.

So tell me... which Nerdy Trailer gets which role? You may state your reasons if you wish or just the names... as much or as little as desired.

Well? Anyone wanna play casting agent?

Ebenezer Scrooge
Bob Cratchit
Tiny Tim
Jacob Marley
The Ghost of Christmas Past
The Ghost of Christmas Present
The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come
Fezziwig


(Of course if you'd like you may add the two gentlemen who seek contributions at the beginning, Belle, Scrooge's sister F(r)an, Mrs. Fezziwig, the boy who fetches the poulterer, the other Cratchit children, etc).

Okay first of all please don't call me Gloria cause that's not my name and it brings back memories of teachers who wouldn't even try the **** to say my name which bothered me cause it happened every single year.

Whew.

Secondly do you mean I play the little boy who Scrooge asks what day it is? (That sounded illiterate. Maybe someone will come down from the pad lock to correct me once again on being wrong. I apparently am good at that. ).

Gee... I didn't think I'd be chosen for that.

Third... I'm thinking about casting against type. I mean instead of someone really really really nice like ed for Tiny Tim what if I cast one of the forum bullies?

Might work.

What did you miss?????
Some talk show host named Michael Savage offered Rapid Redux a million dollars to drop out of the race but Rapid turned him down. Rapid went on to win the race but now OWS says he has too many wins and he should share his wins with the less fortunate horseys. OWS is occupying Rapid's stall until he agrees.
