	TOM (THE ROAD TO CONFLICT)

With The Road to Conflict, the final Dalek Chronicle, soon to enter production, we are searching for someone to play young hero Tom.

Tom is English, well spoken, between twelve and fifteen years old, bright, brave, resourceful, and deeply protective of his sister Jenny. And he’s about to have a lot of fun fighting Daleks!

Ideally, I would like to cast someone who genuinely is between twelve and fifteen, someone with a real talent for acting who is keen to be a part of the final Dalek Chronicle, but I am also willing to hear auditions from anyone who can sound like they are the right age. This is voice work, after all.

If you think you have what it takes, then please record both of the brief scenes below (just Tom’s lines) and send them to the usual address: empire639@msn.com with the word ‘Audition’ as your subject.

As always, the lucky successful applicant will receive a free copy of the production when it is completed.

In the first scene, Tom and Jenny are hiding in the Dalek city, trying to get back to their ship.

DALEK CITY ENTRANCE

WE PULL BACK FROM THE DALEKS TO A LINE OF FANCY BOXES. THE LID OF ONE OPENS TO REVEAL TOM AND JENNIE IN HIDING.

JENNIE: Can we chance getting back now, Tom?

TOM’S EYES WIDEN.

TOM: I’m afraid we can’t, Jen, look!

THE DALEKS – INCLUDING ONE HOVERBOUT - ARE ESCORTING THEIR LATEST PRISONER - CAPTAIN FLEET – UP THE RAMP AND INTO THE CITY!

TOM: They’ve got Captain Fleet! We’ll never get off this planet without him!

AS THE DALEKS AND THEIR PRISONER ENTER THE CITY, TOM AND JENNIE CLIMB FROM THE BOXES AND FOLLOW.

TOM: He must have come to rescue us… All right, we’ll rescue him!

THEY FOLLOW BEHIND AS THE CAPTAIN IS LED THROUGH THE CITY.

FLEET: Why did you kill my men, and what have you done with the two young people you kidnapped?

DALEK: Silence!

HE WALKS ON, FLANKED FRONT AND BACK BY THREE DALEKS – AND WITH TOM AND JENNIE FOLLOWING BEHIND.


	In the second scene, Tom has just seen the Daleks wipe out the Earth ship - including his own parents. He is understandably upset, but trying to hide it from his sister who knows nothing.


	DALEK CITY. HANGAR OUR HEROES ARRIVE AND SPOT A DALEK SAUCER UNDER GUARD BY A SINGLE DALEK. JENNIE: Why are you so quiet, Tom? TOM LOOKS PENSIVE, THEN - TOM: Just wondering how we can take one of their craft. JENNIE: Aren’t we going back to our ship? FLEET: No, Jennie. We’re going back to Earth in a Dalek transporter. JENNIE: But mother and father! TOM: Don’t worry about them. (SADLY) Don’t worry. FLEET: We have to do this. It’s the only way. JENNIE PAUSES THEN NODS SLOWLY. CAUTIOUSLY THEY CREEP UP TO THE SHIP, UNSEEN BY THE DALEK GUARD. TOM: (WHISPER) How do we get in? There’s no ramp! FLEET: (QUIETLY) If we can’t steal the Dalek spaceship, we’re done for! THEY GLANCE AT THE DALEK GUARD THEN LOOK AT THE SHIP‘S HULL. THERE ARE PLENTY OF FOOTHOLDS FOR THEM TO CLIMB. FLEET: (QUIETLY) Don’t worry, we’ll do it like acrobats. THEY BEGIN TO CLIMB UP TO THE ENTRY HATCH IN THE SIDE OF THE SHIP, UNNOTICED BY THE DALEK GUARD.
