A competent career waitress at a greasy, dingy diner.

Raghav arrived in Ontario 6 months ago to pursue his studies and his passion for acting. He’s always looked up to his older brother, Raam who came to Ontario 7 years ago and has become a theater director at a failing Mom and Pop Theater. Raam is new to this world, still a little anxious and missing his mother back home. Raghav has been hired as an actor in Raam’s latest show, but 10 minutes before opening night, Raghav finds out his hometown is being bombed and that his mother’s unreachable. Must speak Gujarati.

Raam arrived in Ontario 7 years ago in hopes to secure a safe future for his mother and brother. After failing to secure an office job for years, he decided to double down on his passion and landed a job as a director at a failing Mom and Pop Theater. He has always been the caring, responsible older brother, but after years away from home and no PR, he’s beginning to fear that his time in Canada has been for nothing. 10 minutes before opening night of their latest play, Raam finds out his hometown is being bombed and that his mother’s unreachable. Raam’s immigration status depends on whether or not the play happens, but at the same time he’s unsure if his mother’s alive. Must speak Gujarati.

A weathered, penny-pinching theatre owner who has spent decades keeping a dying basement playhouse alive through sheer stubbornness. Vincent is blunt, anxious about money, and constantly scrambling, but beneath the frayed edges is a man who genuinely believes in theatre.

A gentle, practical Gujarati mother whose love is expressed through worry, routine, and small rituals. Even across distance, she anchors her sons with warmth, teasing, and blessings. Behind her steady voice is an undercurrent of loneliness in Adipur that she rarely speaks about. Must speak Gujarati.
