PRINCIPALS - SPEAKING:

*If you overlap in age, please pick one role that you match most with and audition for that one.

​

LG&E Guy (Spokesperson)

Male | 40s - 50s | Any Ethnicity

Should be charismatic, with a wry sense of humor.  He should come across as knowledgeable, likeable and witty.  He's also pretty put-together and has never been seen not wearing his signature suit.  Think Mayhem from the All State commercials meets Paul F. Thompkins.

​

​

Mark the Fisherman

Male | 30s - 40s | White

Mark is an average looking guy.  He spends all his time on his fishing boat, in hopes of catching "the big one."  He's friendly, familiar and most importantly, really into "lake life."

​

​

*Please note - actors should be comfortable being around water or in water.  The Fisherman role will be "pulled" overboard a couple of times.  They'll be working in the shallow parts of the water, but still should be OK with being in it.  And the spokersperson guy will be driving around in a boat, so still around water.
