DEADLINE: Monday, 16 November
This is your last chance to join the current casting round!

We've already received a large number of applications for That Is Dry, but before closing submissions, we're opening one final opportunity for actors to apply and potentially become part of the project.

ABOUT THE PROJECT
That Is Dry is a brand-new sketch comedy project creating original, high-quality short-form comedy content for YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and other social media platforms.

Our vision is to create entertaining, original and recognizable comedy sketches featuring different characters, situations and stories. From dry humor and awkward interactions to absurd scenarios, relatable situations and unexpected twists.

Most sketches will be approximately one minute long and primarily in English, aimed at reaching an international audience.

We're building this project from the ground up and want to bring together a talented group of actors and creatives to create something with real potential.

LOCATION & AVAILABILITY
All filming will take place in the Netherlands, primarily in the Randstad area (around Amsterdam and Utrecht).

You must be willing and able to travel to filming locations within this area.

You don't need to live in the Randstad, but you should be able to attend the scheduled filming days.

IMPORTANT — COMPENSATION & TRAVEL
We want to be completely transparent.

That Is Dry is a new, independent project that is currently not generating any revenue.

At this stage, we unfortunately cannot offer acting fees, compensation or travel expense reimbursement.

Participation is entirely voluntary and unpaid. We understand that your time and talent are valuable, and we want to make these conditions clear before you apply.

As the project grows, we hope to create opportunities for paid collaborations in the future. However, future paid opportunities are not guaranteed.
