Role: Background “Thieves”

The production is casting men ages 20–35 to portray a group of small-time criminals living on the fringes of society.

The ideal look includes:

🔹 Lean, wiry, and hard-lived appearances
🔹 Rough or weathered features
🔹 Restless, unpredictable energy
🔹 A look that feels desperate, opportunistic, and slightly dangerous
🔹 Character types that could fit into a gritty crime-world setting

These background roles should feel like people who survive through petty crime, impulsive decisions, and whatever hustle gets them through the week.
