ROBBIE COX (Calvin Roland)
“God’s greatest gift is man fully alive.”
This quote has been at the forefront of Robbie’s mind ever since he made the decision to pursue acting, the one thing in life that brings him fully alive. Born and raised in Memphis, TN, Robbie Cox has always had a passion for the arts. He began acting in 2000 at Cordova high school, where he was in a minimum of 4 main stage productions a year. This propelled him into a deeper study of the craft at the University of Southern Mississippi where he received his BFA with an emphasis on acting. Robbie is now a certified ballroom and Latin dance instructor at A Social Affair Dance Studio in Jacksonville, where he plans to compete professionally in the American Rhythm Division by the end of the year. The dancing provides him a great way to continue his growth and discipline as an artist while he continues his pursuit of acting.
JENNIFER WARD (Sara)
Jennifer Ward was born and raised in Zephyrhills, FL. She graduated from the University of Central Florida in Orlando with a Bachelors Degree in Psychology in 2002. Acting has always been a dream of Jennifer's but was placed on the back burner to pursue more "realistic" goals. The suicide of her brother in late 2006 brought into sharp focus that she was wasting her life by not pursuing her true passion. In the span of nine months Jennifer completed six films and was nominated for an award at the completion of Core Film Acting at Art's Sake Studio in Winter Park, FL. The Parting will be her 12th film. Jennifer plans to relocate to Los Angeles in the next three years to further pursue her acting career. Jennifer Ward web site
