Chinese; Speaks Cantonese Liam Chen grew up shy, skinny, and skittish — but now on the cusp of fifteen, baby’s glowing up. He listens to New Jeans; he knows about cleanser; he just figured out what to do with his hair. He’s just becoming cool, and (although he can’t really put words to it) he’s terrified of losing this feeling.

Chinese; Speaks Cantonese A Hong Kong native, Eddie Lau immigrated to Toronto’s Chinatown in his forties, before being priced out of the neighborhood. Since his wife passed, Eddie spends long days collecting cans in Markham suburbs. He’s practiced at living invisibly, but the effort is wearing him down. Despite his practicality, Eddie’s a dreamer, and dreams often about his youth.

Caucasian Jack has always been a natural ringleader. Irresistibly funny with a mean streak, he makes you want to be in on the joke – if you're on the outside, you might end up with a black eye.

Caucasian True to her name, Sugar is sticky sweet – but like most girls her age, she knows that “sweet” can only take her so far up the social ladder. So, sure, she’ll watch you play Valorant in your mom’s basement; she’ll laugh at your dumb, gross jokes. Sugar’s a guy’s girl. Sugar’s cool.

Caucasian; can skateboard Mutt takes “teenage dirtbag” way too literally. He’s that kid who never grew out of the pigtail-pulling phase, except now he’s six-foot-something and harder to ignore. Despite all his posturing, Mutt’s a follower – loyal to the pack.

Female, 18+ to play younger, white. Lauren is our protagonist. She is curious, compassionate and intelligent. Although she is generally outgoing and confident, sometimes in this group of friends she can become overwhelmed and gives into their peer pressure easily. She is constantly fighting an internal battle of self-doubt, insecurity and denial over what her relationships with the others truly mean. Lauren is emotionally layered, displaying a mix of vulnerability, frustration, and strength as she confronts Cody and her friends during a night that changes everything. This role requires intimacy (kissing, touching over clothing), smoking (prop cigarette) and fake vomiting stunt work. We will be working with an intimacy coordinator and stunt coordinator both in rehearsals and on set.

Male, 18+ to play younger, Mixed Race. Cody is Lauren’s boyfriend but is secretly involved with Nicole. He is a complicated, immature teenage boy with extreme emotions. He is portrayed as somewhat carefree and unimpressed by the supposed powers of the Ouija board at first, but quickly becomes defensive and angry when his secret is about to be exposed. Cody’s role requires an actor who can transition from playful and charming to aggressive and panicked. This role requires intimacy (kissing, touching over clothing), smoking (prop marijuana from a pipe) and stunts (wall punch, shoving). We will be working with an intimacy coordinator and stunt coordinator both in rehearsals and on set.

Female, 18+ to play younger, Filipina/Asian. Jasmine is Lauren’s closest friend. She is generally very straightforward in how she speaks, but underneath her genuine care for her friends and love for fun she inhabits a more complex, conflicted conscience. Throughout the night, Jasmine plays along and appears as only a bystander to the drama that unfolds. However, in the end she takes responsibility for revealing Cody and Nicole’s secret to Lauren in order to help her friend know the truth. But is she herself being truthful in this admission? Jasmine’s role requires a subtle yet powerful and nuanced performance. This role requires smoking (prop cigarettes).

Female, 18+ to play younger, white. Nicole is one of Lauren's closest friends. She is sassy, confident, a risk taker. Her main goal in all things is to have as much fun as possible. She is romantically involved with Cody, unbeknownst to Lauren. Nicole is complex, juggling both the fear and adrenaline of bearing this secret, which eventually culminates in her admission of her involvement with Cody. By the end of the story Nicole is an emotional wreck, crying profusely as the floodgates of her guilt and resulting ruined friendship with Lauren burst open.

Male, 18+ to play younger, Black. Anthony is part of the friend group and is portrayed as more cautious and grounded. He is funny and a joker, but also very genuinely caring. Anthony is in the process of figuring out his sexual identity, having shared with Lauren his questioning of whether he is queer, something he hasn’t shared with the rest of the group. He has conflicting alliances within the friend group, being close friends with both Cody and Lauren. He dislikes the way that Cody treats Lauren and even though they are friends, he knows Cody is kind of a dick. Anthony tries to stay out of the brewing conflict until Cody gets up in his face. Overall, Anthony brings a sense of calmness and level-headedness to the group, acting as a counterbalance to the rising tensions and ensuing chaos. This role requires smoking (prop marijuana from a pipe) and potential stunts (shoving). We will be working with a stunt coordinator in rehearsals and on set.

Female, Early 50s, Filipina. Description: Dolores is a woman in her early 50s with warm and expressive eyes and a kind smile that often hides the weariness etched into her face. Her hair, usually tied back in a practical bun, is peppered with strands of gray, a testament to the years she has spent caring for others. She has a sturdy build, shaped by a life of hard work and resilience. Dolores carries herself with a blend of grace and determination, often masking her deeper emotions with a vibrant personality and a sharp sense of humour. Beneath her cheerful exterior, Dolores is plagued by guilt and unresolved grief over her husband's death, which she believes she must bear alone to protect Isaac. Her inner turmoil is reflected in moments of quiet introspection, where her eyes betray the sadness she tries so hard to conceal. Preferrence for someone who can speak Tagalog and/or other Filipino dialects.

Male (Open to Transgender submissions), Mid 20s, Filipino. Isaac is a young man in his mid-20s with striking, angular features and a lean, athletic build that he maintains for his performances. His dark, expressive eyes are framed by long lashes, often accentuated by makeup, reflecting his bold personality. He keeps his hair short and stylish, in contrast to the array of wigs he uses for his drag shows. Isaac’s style is flamboyant and colourful, embodying his love for performance and self-expression. He is energetic and often projects an air of confidence, but underneath, he carries the weight of feeling misunderstood and overlooked in his grief. Isaac longs for emotional closeness with his mother and struggles with the unspoken pain between them. His character is marked by a mix of youthful exuberance and a deep, introspective desire to connect and be understood, especially by Dolores, whom he sees as both his greatest supporter and a source of unresolved tension. Preferrence for someone who can speak Tagalog but not required
