Well, all my under-preparation must have worked. Tracy, the film's production manager assistant director, called while I was at a Playground show and offered me the part of a secondary character - "Mike Wellington", the organizer of some sort of dance festival. (I think all the primary characters have to be able to dance. At least, that's going to be my face-saving explanation to myself of why I didn't get a lead role.) She read me a character description that I immediately forgot. Is he "bold, but reserved" or "scheming, but cheerful"? I'll have to wait until my character development workshop to find out.
