OLIVER

Winnipeg
Role description

Rachel was the original name in script - she is now OLIVER. 30-50's Abby’s manager, a polished and charismatic man who’s always thinking about PR and image. Oliver is smooth, calculated, and very much the Hollywood type, reminiscent of Robert Evans in his prime. Because he's so focused on his own reputation and career, the actor who plays him should have comedy chops so he doesn't simply come off as a one-dimensional conflict plot device. Yes, he's a smooth talker, always looking for the next opportunity to boost Abby’s—and by extension, his own—career, but we can't help but laugh as he delivers those smooth lines. Open Ethnicity
