Cape Ann residents have a shot at their 15 seconds of fame when an open casting call is held tomorrow, Oct. 16, for new Gorton’s of Gloucester commercials.
Maura Tighe Casting will be holding an open casting call for extras tomorrow in preparation for the shoot. The commercial will be shot here in Gloucester next month.
"We’re hoping for good turnout, the weather is supposed to be lousy, but hopefully the weather will be on our side because we’ll be inside," said Christine Wyse, a casting director with the agency who will be here tomorrow. "We’re looking for a lot of locals to turn out and say hi to us."
Residents of Gloucester, Rockport, Essex, Manchester, and surrounding towns are all wanted to be extras in the commercials.
