Casting for "The Real World" comes to Richmond

Avid fans of the hit MTV reality series, "The Real World," — a show where strangers become roommates for five months while working together — probably know that Season 22 in Cancun has come to an end and a new season in Washington, D.C., is about to premiere. Richmonders who want to be a part of Season 24 do not have to venture far from campus to do so. Bunim/Murray Productions casting directors will be holding an open call this Saturday, Oct. 24, from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. at the Capital Ale House, 623 East Main Street, Richmond, Va., 23219.

Applicants must be between the ages of 18 and 24 bring a recent picture of themselves and a photo ID, which will not be returned. Recruiters are encouraging anyone with a great personality and diversity to apply. In particular, for this season the producers would like to include a person who is physically challenged, struggling with weight issues, affected by a natural disaster, received home or alternative schooling or wants to promote a cause they care about. All applicants outside of these specifications are still encouraged to apply. For more information, call Mariah O'Hara at 304-248-6177, e-mail mohara@bwr-la.com or visit www.bunimmurray.com.
