Man; 30 to 35 years old; Thai. Must be fluent in both Thai and English. Quiet and inward, he is someone who has become accustomed to being alone. Ohm is observant but rarely says more than he needs to, having grown up in a Thai household where silence was mistaken for peace. As a child he found a rare closeness with his uncle, the only adult who understood the curiosities he never voiced. After his uncle's death, Ohm carried a guilt and longing for connection his parents' expectations could never satisfy. Now living in Canada, Ohm becomes consumed with the idea of apologizing to his uncle, believing it might grant him the closure his parents never offered. When he meets Rafa, a man who accepts him without hesitation, Ohm begins to confront the silence that has shaped him. LEAD

Sherilyn, early, 20s. An ordinary-looking young woman with slightly droopy, half-lidded eyes and a subtly melancholic gaze. Her personality can shift from charming to deeply unsettling in a heartbeat. She is impulsive and often blind to the harm she causes others, she uses dark humour and sarcasm to mask her fragility and loneliness. Beneath her tough exterior lies a deeply wounded young woman, torn between her desire to be loved and the terrifying consequences of the only protection she has ever known. Desperate to experience intimacy after many failed attempts, she invites a new boyfriend, Ted, into her bedroom, only to have her attempt at connection unravel under the watch of her fiercely protective monster. **Please note this role has simulated intimacy, sensual physical contact, graphic horror violence and gore, intense emotional distress, a scene involving a blade held to the throat, and strong language.**

Ted, early 20s. A slightly overweight, sweet-natured young man. He has an endearing, boyish quality, with a playful sense of humor and an earnest, almost disarming innocence. He feels a little out of place among the cool, edgy crowd around him. Affectionate, trusting, and genuinely devoted to his girlfriend, Sherilyn, he wears his heart on his sleeve and wants nothing more than to make her happy. When a romantic evening turns into a nightmare, Ted’s sweetness gives way to disbelief and escalating panic as he faces imminent death. An ordinary young man completely out of his depth, he must fight to survive. Requires strong comedic timing and the ability to shift from awkward charm to increasingly frantic terror. **Please note this role has simulated intimacy, partial nudity (underwear), graphic horror violence and gore, physical distress, and strong language.**
