The roles of Norman Thayer, Ethel Thayer and Chelsea Thayer Wayne are cast. Following are the open roles:

Charlie Martin, male, 35 to 50. Chelsea's former summer romance, he is now the mailman at Golden Pond. Weather-beaten face, smiling eyes and charming in his own rustic and simple way.

Bill Ray, male, 35 to 50. A dentist. Chelsea's fiance and father to Billy Ray Jr. Serious but has a good sense of humor.

Billy Ray Jr., boy, 12 to 16. Sharp-tongued, flippant, uses his wit to cover his awkwardness. Deep down, he's eager and bright. His hair is longer, and his posture is terrible.
