For NBC musical “Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist,” about a tech worker in San Francisco who can hear people’s thoughts — but only as musical numbers — choreographer Mandy Moore also turned into a performer.
“I made a video of myself dancing in our room and sent it off,” Moore says, as part of the casting for the number “This Little Light of Mine” in the episode “Zoey’s Extraordinary Neighbor.” She hired the choir for the piece in Vancouver, where the show was shot, but had to go a step further to line up dancers, aiming for different shapes, sizes and ages to establish authenticity. Anyone who auditioned would have to learn the steps, shoot a video and send the tape back to Moore.
A chance meeting with showrunner Austin Winsberg put the series on Moore’s radar. One reason she was attracted to the show was that it uses different places and people.
