Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 529 The Audition

The short film brought together some of the top industry stars, all well-known and beloved by the public.

It wasn't about the monetary value, but rather the sentimental significance of collecting such a piece.

Violeta also ordered a custom-made silk fan for Elaine, which was adorned with double-sided embroidery of swans, symbolizing harmony and happiness. By the end of the month, auditions for The Golden Age were held.

The venue was bustling with countless actors. Most of them were recent graduates from film schools and some up-and-coming talents in the industry.

Hundreds of actresses auditioned for the role of the hotel owner's daughter.

Finally, three candidates were shortlisted. Mason had to approve each of them.

The hotel owner's family of four held roles just as significant as the leading couple. The choice of actors was critical.

Kaylee was also auditioning for the role of the hotel owner's daughter.

She managed to impressively secure a spot among the final three candidates through her brilliant pantomime performance, where she mimicked snacking on peanuts-fitting perfectly with the character's personality. For the female lead, many actresses auditioned, and Mason would personally oversee the selection.

The audition's requirement was for the female and male leads to perform a scene together.

The challenge was that the actors had to portray a married couple with deep chemistry, despite having never worked together before.

The actors had ten minutes to prepare and select their scene partners.
