PROJECT DESCRIPTION: We are producing a range of audio-visual exhibits for an exciting new visitor attraction in York which celebrates the story of chocolate and confectionery in the capital of chocolate.
The attraction aims to immerse people in confectionery and chocolate's past - from the Mayans and Aztecs who fought over the food they saw as a gift from the gods through the conquistadors to York's Merchant Adventurers who built York as a trading city on top of its Roman then Viking roots.

AV / INTERACTIVE DESCRIPTION: One of the exhibits uses audio-visual projection and soundtrack to tell the story of the Origins of chocolate.

CHARACTER: KING MONTEZUMA II
Moctezuma was the ninth tlatoani or ruler of Tenochtitlan, reigning from 1502 to 1520. The first contact between Indigenous civilizations of Mesoamerica and Europeans took place during his reign, and he was killed during the initial stages of the Spanish conquest of Mexico, when Conquistador Hernán Cortés and his men fought to escape from the Aztec capital Tenochtitlan.

Physical appearance: The actor will need to be or look like from a South or Central American background He will need to have an athletic build, dark hair, dark skin and dark eyes.

The actor will be required to perform in Aztec costume and make-up including body-pain and a head-dress. He will need to be comfortable wearing this type of costume.

As this idea behind this AV is an accurate reconstruction of the discovery of the cocoa bean so we are looking for an actor with similar facial features and build who can give a realistic performance as Montezuma II.

As this is a non-speaking role we are looking for an actor who can express emotion through facial expression and physical gesture.
