CBBC Searching for Two Young British Chinese stars for New Children’s Drama

CBBC are casting an exciting kung-fu action fantasy television series and are looking for young British-born Chinese to play the lead roles in the new Children’s Drama – BO AND THE SPIRIT WORLD:

Bo – Female, aged 11-16 Confident, sporty and a born leader

Timothy – Male, aged 9-12 Cheeky, Quick-witted and energetic

Bo and Timothy are on a school trip when they are suddenly transported to a magical ’spirit world’. Here they become superpowered spirit warriors, on a quest to save the world. It’s good versus evil in an epic struggle inspired by Chinese mythology and folklore.

This is a fantastic opportunity to explore what it means to be British Chinese today and to create a role model for your community. Above all, it is a chance of a lifetime for two young people to have an amazing experience at the heart of a major new BBC Children’s Drama.

If you are interested and would like more information email us at boandtimothy@bbc.co.uk or visit our website at www.bbc.co.uk/cbbc live from 1st January ‘09.

For parental enquiries, please call David Tse (casting advisor) on 07931 764 840 (10-6pm Weekdays)
