Due date
Tuesday May 13, 2025
Submissions from
Toronto
Role description

(Female, 20-28, Black). Gabby is a bold and principled activist, exhausted by performative allyship and institutional deflection. She’s sharp, unfiltered, and driven by truth—not optics. Often misunderstood as combative, her intensity comes from years of being ignored and her deep sense of duty to her community. She challenges others to confront their blind spots, even if it costs her social capital. Gabby is not here to make people comfortable—she’s here to make change. Actors should bring emotional precision and restraint—Gabby’s fire is grounded, not performative. PRINCIPAL.

Due date
Tuesday May 13, 2025
Submissions from
Toronto
Role description

(Male, 20-28, Black). Graeme is a composed, intellectually rigorous member of the troupe who values logic over emotion in charged debates. He’s analytical, well-read, and often plays devil’s advocate—not to provoke, but because he genuinely believes in measured discourse. While others lead with feeling, Graeme searches for nuance and context, which can sometimes isolate him or make him appear detached. Beneath that calm exterior is a dry, deadpan wit that cuts through tension in unexpected ways. Deep down, he’s wrestling with how to be useful in a movement that doesn’t always trust his approach. Actors should bring clarity, control, and subtle comedic timing—Graeme’s restraint is layered with insight, humour, and quiet conflict. PRINCIPAL.

Toronto
Role description

(Male, White, 30s). Sean is the overly enthusiastic LA actor who turns every moment into a monologue. He’s friendly, talkative, and the cliche name-dropper—trying hard to impress while unaware of how much space he takes up. He sees himself as generous and inspiring, but often centers himself in conversations that aren’t his to lead. He lacks self-awareness, and his good intentions are clouded by unchecked privilege and micro aggressions. Actors should bring sharp comedic instincts, subtle irony, and a strong sense of timing—Sean is sincere, not spoofed, and that’s what makes him funny. PRINCIPAL.

Due date
Tuesday May 13, 2025

Toronto
Role description

(Female, Any Ethnicity, 30s). The brittle gatekeeper of a fading institution—underpaid, over-it, and clinging to the little authority she has. She leads with condescension to mask insecurity, but folds quickly when confronted. Her instinct is to shut people down, not because she’s cruel, but because she’s been taught to follow rules, not ask questions. She’s uncomfortable with confrontation and even more uncomfortable when called out—but eager to reclaim likability when the tone shifts. Actors should bring dry delivery, passive-aggressive energy, and a touch of awkward self-interest— she is rigid until she’s starstruck. PRINCIPAL
