Role: Plaintiff — Veronica St. James (Female, 35, Any Race)
Veronica St. James is suing professional matchmaker Simone Reynolds, claiming Simone paired her with men who were unsuitable and unattractive—and that Simone allegedly pulled candidates from a “Glow Up” program for men who feel unattractive instead of the premium matchmaking database Veronica paid for. Veronica says she went on four dates, stopped after none matched what she requested, and feels the service violated the trust and expectations of their professional agreement.
We are casting featured participants to portray individuals involved in a real small-claims case for the unscripted TV series Equal Justice with Judge Eboni K. Williams.

She’s confident, image-conscious, and strategic, and she takes it personally when she feels she’s been “sold” something that doesn’t meet the premium promise. Her frustration is sharp and specific: she believes she paid for elite curation and got something else. Under the poise is deep offense, humiliation, and anger at feeling played.
Requirements:
-
Strong improv ability with a natural, grounded performance
-
Comfortable portraying polished, high-status presence (executive energy)
-
Able to play righteous indignation and wounded pride without becoming caricature
-
Strong articulation for detailed complaints, expectations, and boundaries

Role: Defendant — Simone Reynolds (Female, 40, Any Race)
