CHARACTER BREAKDOWN
ANT: [Male; Black. 20-35. Lean or muscular figure.] Stoic, intense, and contemplative. Secretive while simultaneously wearing his heart on his sleeve. Ant is philosophic and introverted with a poetic soul perpetually searching for a place that feels like home (both emotionally and physically). Must be comfortable with nudity and sex scenes.
​
SNOW: [Male; any ethnicity. 20-35. 6’0” and above. Lean figure.] Loyal, protective, and shadowy extraterrestrial. Although he is a character of few words, his presence (and imposing, ghoulish appearance) is arresting and often causes apprehension in others.
​
MAX: [Male; Black. 20-35. 5’11” and under. Long hair or locs.] A carefree, suave, and outspoken DJ with a hidden chip on his shoulder. He is vehemently family-oriented and thinks of himself as the guardian of his friend group and loved ones. Must have great comedic timing.
​
ERIC: [Male or masc-identifying non-binary; POC. 20-30.] Flirtatious and feline polyglot, and “baby” of his/their friend group. Alluring, sleek, and cunning. Queer and deeply in touch with his/their feminine energy despite a typically masculine presentation. Always seeks opportunities for cheeky banter. Must be comfortable with nudity and sex scenes.
CHRISTOPHER: [Male; Black. 10-15. Long hair or locs.] Mischievous, affectionate, and inquisitive younger brother of Max. Gifted musical savant wise beyond his years. Must have excellent musical instrument and/or singing abilities.
​
CINDY: [Trans woman or trans-femme; POC. 20-35.] Cindy is a witty and flirty hair salon assistant. A vibrant party girl, Cindy’s outgoing persona conceals her tender and caring nature.
​
ALEX: [Female; Black. 18-25. Dark-skinned. 5’9” and above. Lean figure.] Teenage captain of her high school track-and-field team. Demands a lot from her peers, yet is remarkable in her ability to simultaneously uplift their spirits. Think Flo-Jo.
​
BAILEY: [Male; Black. 18-25. Dark-skinned. 5’11” and above. Lean or muscular figure.] Teenage track-and-field athlete. Composed, withdrawn, and discreetly judgmental.
​
RAYN: [Female; POC. 20-30.] Intimidating and unapproachable model who is uncompromising in her desires.
​
PERRY: [Male; Latinx. 20-30.] Whimsical cholo-esque stoner and drifter. The coolest guy in the room at any given moment, with the unparalleled ability to make anyone laugh without effort. Think Cheech & Chong. Must have great comedic timing.
​
JEREMY: [Female; Black. 14-22.] Max and Christopher’s musically gifted teenage cousin. An introspective and incisive girl who knows what she wants on a visceral level. Must be an excellent singer; church singing background preferred.
DERRICK: [Male; any ethnicity. 14-22.] Jeremy’s visually impaired/disabled best friend. A gifted percussionist with a goth/emo look and edge. Must have excellent percussion instrument skills. Visually impaired/disabled talent is strongly preferred.
​
TYSON: [Non-cis, trans, genderqueer, non-binary or gender non-conforming; Black. 25-45.] Vivacious and larger-than-life hyper-femme club promoter. Takes no shit; loud and in charge. Must have great comedic timing.
​
GUY: [Male; any ethnicity. 20-35.] Flirtatious pretty boy who can’t seem to take no for an answer. Ditsy and self-involved.
​
MOLE: [Male; any ethnicity. 18-25.] A teenage boy with a devious secret. Must be comfortable with nudity and sexually suggestive scenes.
​
SECRET: [Male; POC. 18-25.] An unsuspecting teenager. Must be comfortable with nudity.
BARISTA: [Female; Black. 18-25.] Bright-eyed ray of sunshine working at a café with e-girl or Harajuku-inspired style. A smile that can light up an entire room. Actual barista experience is a plus.
THE STRANGER: [Male; Black. 18-25. Long hair or locs.] A brooding yet softhearted teenager.
MAMA: [Female; Black. 40-60. 5’8” and above.] Maternal and spiritually inclined. A gentle and sympathetic woman who exudes comforting energy without having to speak.
