Talent search underway for new ABC Family series 'Switched at Birth'

From ABC Family Casting Department:

ABC Family is looking for an amazing young, deaf actress to star in a new TV series (and two male deaf actors too)!

The show revolves around Daphne, a smart, confident and well-adjusted deaf teenager who has her world turned upside down when she discovers that she was switched at birth with another girl.

If you meet the characters' requirements below, submit a video of yourself by October 15th, 2010. PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU MUST SIGN A WAIVER BEFORE SUBMITTING ANY VIDEO.

Actress is to be light-haired or willing to dye hair blond for the role, and if the show moves to series, actress must be willing to relocate to Los Angeles in February.

Smart, confident, and well-adjusted Daphne is stunned to learn that she and Bay Kennish were accidentally switched at birth 15 years ago. Having grown up in a working-class household as the only child of a single mom, she is excited to meet her new parents, and especially thrilled at the idea of having brothers and a dad.

Casting Update:

Nikki Blonsky - Hayley Hasselhoff - Zander Eckhouse - Andrew Caldwell

Actress Nikki Blonsky has joined the cast in a lead role to play Will, an overweight girl attending the weight-loss camp at the command of her wealthy, fitness conscious parents who coincidentally own a chain of fitness centers. Also headlining will be Hayley Hasselhoff, the daughter of "Baywatch" icon David Hasselhoff. She'll play Amber, a not quite over-weight teen who, although is the skinniest and “hottest” girl at the camp, is still conscientious about her weight. While attending camp, Amber clashes with Nikki’s character and becomes the object of affection for a college student working as an assistant fitness counselor (Zander Eckhouse).
