Jessica Caver
Jessica Caver is a native Coloradan who has always had an interest in all things creative, from vocal performance, drawing, painting, dancing, and even knitting. However, Jessica finds the greatest passion in acting. Jessica has trained in many areas including on camera acting, stage acting, improv comedy, voice over work, and print modeling to name a few. She has also performed in the Bas Bleu Theatre with the improv group “Poultry in Motion.” More than anything Jessica really just enjoys her work of sharing creativity and emotion with others. It is this energy and sincerity that catches and holds the attention of audiences. Jessica holds a Bachelors degree in Anthropology from Colorado State University and enjoys spending as much time as possible being active in the Colorado outdoors.
Jonah Lujan
Jonah lives in Lakewood, Colorado and has been acting a short time. Some of Jonah’s projects include the play, Six Impossible Things before Breakfast, based on the works of Lewis Carroll, and the short film Tribe by Troy Horne and Elizabeth Karsell Horne. Jonah studies acting and voice over at Audition Better acting school where he acquired his first acting job in a commercial advertising the school. Jonah also loves to dance and has two years experience in Mexican dance and one year of hip-hop. He plans on continuing with Mexican dance and wants to take on the challenge of ballroom dance. Jonah’s plate is very full but he loves acting and hopes to soon be part of a Hollywood production. With his talent and determination, Jonah should never have to hold out his plate, and utter the words “Please sir, may I have some more?”
Christine Mascolo
Christine decided to pursue a career in acting at the tender age of 9. After a couple of months of intensive training, she emerged as the “no. 1 pick” in their showcase of 15 aspirants, with ages ranging from 8 to 19 years old. Talent scouts described her as “a beautiful, really interesting actress… strong, confident… wise for her years.” A prominent Los Angeles casting director simply calls her “a natural.” Since being discovered, Christine has taken acting in stride, knowing that all good things take time. Whether she finds Hollywood at the end of the yellow brick road remains to be seen. For now, Christine is happy where she is and is well-grounded by the loving support of family and friends. You could say she is your typical pre-teen, besides the fact that she carries in her pocket a professional headshot and a resume – with an impressive and steadily-growing list of credits at that!

His name is Darden Poling – a 22 year old aspiring actor looking to get into film. In a way, he always knew acting is what he wanted to do. Ever since he was a young boy, Darden acted out every movie he ever watched. His life hasn’t been a fairytale by any means, but that has helped shape his understanding and skills in the profession. Over the years Darden has taken a few classes, been in local productions and worked in a couple of films and trailers.

Going wherever life takes him, on this endless adventure on the stage, because as James Dean once said “Dream as if you’ll live forever, live as if you’ll die today…”
