Holding Auditions in the East Valley

Casting: “Mojo”
Genre: Drama “Mojo”
Set in present day Austin, Texas. Ashley Logan lives what appears to be a charmed life. She has two small children and is married to a tech celebrity, ala Steve Jobs.
While looking for the perfect gift for her Grandparents, she investigates her ancestral roots. After a DNA test reveals African lineage, she confronts her Grandmother and is given a set of family journals. The journals detail the lives (via flashback) of two slave ancestors living in Louisiana in the 1800s. After reading the journals with her family, Ashley reexamines her life, and the choices she’s made.
