• Felicity – Supporting: Female, ages 20–29. Cool, composed, and businesslike, with a dry sense of humor. She functions partly as Kip’s manager and partly as his dealer. Requires strong dark-comedy timing. No simulated drug use is required beyond handling props such as a baggie and cigarette.

• Open to union and non-union actors.
