Croh is an androgynous adult determined to move past the sexual assault they experienced. Exhausted from the constant pursuit, they slowly release the grip on themselves. However, the experience, represented by The Bug, follows them constantly, like a parasite. Stunt training or experience with physical roles is a plus, not required. All applicants will be considered. Please note that there is a scene where the actor will be in close proximity with another.

Unconventional facial features. The Bug is what remains of the sexual violence on Croh, externalized, and they can’t get rid of it. Deeply unsettling yet familiar, The Bug fights and interacts with Croh in a cheeky and perhaps deceitful way. Must be comfortable with elaborate costume and heavy makeup. Stunt training is a plus, or experience with physicality is a plus; not required. Please note that there is a scene where the actor will be in close proximity with another.

The therapist. Catherine’s approach is a classic therapy one. They rarely challenge and prefer an acute question to provoke reflection. Previous sessions with Croh have been dancing around the subject. In a delicate space, therefore, they are cautious in responding to them.

Male, 30-40 years old, any ethnicity. Daniel is reserved and pragmatic, skeptical about the strange encounter with John and Laura. He doesn't understand why Claire has invited the elderly couple inside and becomes increasingly uncomfortable as they move further into the house. He’d rather continue with the quiet privacy of their day and dislikes having their routine interrupted. At the same time, he finds it difficult to assert himself in the moment, partly because he doesn't want to undermine Claire's generosity.

There is a quiet vulnerability beneath Daniel's guarded exterior. His discomfort with John and Laura gradually exposes a deeper unease in his relationship with Claire: a sense that something between them has become stagnant, and that they have lost some of the intimacy they once shared. As he watches the elderly couple's openness and affection, Daniel is confronted with his own difficulty expressing what he needs. Daniel's performance should gradually move from skepticism, unease, and irritation toward vulnerability and surrender. The conflict and emotion should remain largely beneath the surface; even at his most uncomfortable, Daniel is quiet, restrained, and naturalistic.

The Groom. Charmingly maladroit and introspective, Roy is a lover who wears his heart on his sleeve. He says what he means and often ends up with his foot in his mouth. He holds himself in a constant battle between gentle sincerity and masculine domination. NOTE: This role involves male and female intimacy and implied nudity (intimacy co-ordinator on set). ACTRA or Apprentice only please.
