ROLES

88 DINER

SUE – Female. Age 50-70. Asian descent. Native Cantonese/Mandarin speaking required. Dry. Sharp. Sue calls things out for what it is and never apologizes to anyone. She is no BS, vulgar, and a bit mean for the sensitive. She has seen everything. Sue escaped China because she committed a crime she won’t ever discuss. Sue loves to drink, smoke, and gamble. Sue is not her real name. Looking for actors with great comedy chops/timing.

UNDOCUMENTED

ERNEST – Late 20s, Latino, male. The sarcastic Watson to Trevor’s self-absorbed Sherlock. Trevor’s best friend, roommate, partner in crime (sometimes literally), and the voice of reason most of the time. A realist at heart, he expects the worst (and constantly tells Trevor) but secretly hopes they’ll hit the jackpot someday. Overtly cautious due to his past experiences, he keeps a low profile but will stand up and fight for what’s right when push comes to shove. Comedic experience is a plus.

AN OVARY THING

HANNAH – Mid 30’s Black, Transgender woman. Sofia’s gorgeous trans sister, assigned male at birth. She’s a social worker who also works at the clinic. Hannah has a tough exterior growing up in the Bronx and finding their identity during the rise of G-Unit misogyny hip hop. Despite her tough exterior, Hannah is a loving and caring individual. She had her mom’s support for gender-affirming procedures to make her the confident, beautiful woman she is today. Yet, she’s low-key jealous of Sofia being their mom’s favorite.

BRIANNA – Early 20s, Black, female. Physically she is on the larger side. Bronx girl who doesn’t trust doctors but will believe almost anything her lying boyfriend says. She trusts Hannah to see a gyno regarding her reproductive health. She has a strong personality and an even stronger throwing arm. Actors who speak with an authentic Bronx accent are a plus but not required.

BOYFRIEND – Mid-20s, Black, Male. He has swag and a good game to romantically blind Brianna. Role requires good physical comedy to shield himself from Brianna’s attack.

NOT MY KID

JASMINE – 8 or 11 years old, South Asian, Female. Devie’s little cousin. Second-generation South Asian-Canadian. Comparable to Full House or Home Alone, the cute and sophisticated 8-year-old already has more grown-up qualities than Devie and Paulo. On page 60 of her novel, Jasmine is self-disciplined and ambitious. Usually doesn’t throw tantrums (unless she loses her mom’s stuffed rabbit), Jasmine helps Devie and Paulo grow up while they teach Jasmine how to be a kid.
