When casting children for the parts of the von Trapp children how old is he?
If I stick to people of the same age? Do I go for older children? If I Gretl six years and more? Then the boys under fourteen play part of one of fourteen? What is size should be the parts?
We had a 5 years old play Gretl. Go close to the age but I would say the line the child unborn to make them look like stair steps from the oldest to the youngest and age do not matter. If you can run the exact ages great but I would go for the look and voice quality. The oldest boy may be larger, then the eldest daughter, but other wise I would have all be shorter than his.
