Seeking:

Marcus:

Male, 18+ to play late teens, innocent, attractive, adventurous and quick witted, should be able to move well.

Osha:

Female, 18+ to play late teens, a natural beauty who has nice splash of the ghetto in her, tries to act grown but is still actually a little girl at heart, should be able to move well.

Ogun:

Male, late 30s-early 50s, a man who has years of hard work on his face and body, hardened by the emotional loss of both his brother and the love of his life years ago, haunted, gentle with a lot of pent up virility.

Shun/Oba/Aunt Elegua:

Female 30s-40s, actress should be young looking but with the emotional weight of a Matriarch, needs to be both a physical comic and a dramatically solid actress.

Oshoosi/Terrel/Shua:

Male, late 20s-30s, extremely sexy, funny, smooth with a flash of violence in his eyes, a bad boy from the wrong side of the tracks.
