COLE
A responsible and protective 19-year-old who volunteers at the youth center and looks out for his younger sister, Tracy. Though shy at first, Cole proves himself through his loyalty and strength, standing up to bullies and confiding in Cal about his family’s struggles. His sincerity and work ethic impress Cal, who offers him a job at the Crossing.
TEEN #1
A restless and sarcastic teen who quickly grows bored during the youth group outing. His teasing of Tracy sparks a confrontation with Cole.
TRACY
A shy and quiet 12-year-old who often relies on her older brother, Cole, for support and protection. Though she initially keeps to herself, her gentle nature shines through during the group outing, especially when she bonds with Liam after a tense moment.
JEANNIE BLASETTE
A diligent social worker and Lola’s supervisor at the Timberlake Youth Centre, Jeannie is as by-the-book as they come. Her rigid demeanor is rooted in her belief that social work is full of grey areas, and that rules are there to save you. She knows firsthand how easy it is to become too emotionally invested in cases, having almost lost her job over this earlier in her career, and recognizes the importance of maintaining boundaries in her line of work. Her insistence on following protocol will put her at odds with the members of the Crossing until she finds herself having a change of heart.
TEEN #2
Cynical and unimpressed, Teen #2 is the first to label the outing as “lame” and joins in the taunting of Tracy.
TEEN #3
More enthusiastic and open-minded than the others, Teen #3 volunteers eagerly to help judge the wood-chopping contest.
Marina
Ethnicity: Open, Non-White (Character is a recent immigrant – all backgrounds welcome; accents welcome) Languages: Must be able to speak a language other than English Character Description – Marina: Marina is a hardworking woman in her early-to-mid 20s who recently immigrated to Canada. Back home, she was a trained nurse—but her credentials don't transfer here. She now works as a live-in personal support worker while pursuing her studies in healthcare. Marina has been living and working with Sylvia for many months. Their relationship has become familiar, built on gentleness, consistency, and care. She genuinely loves Sylvia and feels at home in her role, despite the challenges of caregiving. She maintains strong ties with her family overseas through WhatsApp messages and phone calls, and while she misses them deeply, she is determined to build a life in Canada. Marina has an inner strength and a deep capacity for empathy. She’s always felt at ease around the elderly or ill—able to see their purity, and to remain present with their vulnerability. Visually, Marina carries a blend of youth and quiet resilience. She wears no makeup, often has dark circles under her eyes, and dresses in casual “home clothes”: leggings, oversized sweaters, scrunchies, socks and slides, chipped nail polish. She does not wear scrubs. Seeking: A performer with warmth, emotional openness, and the ability to convey internal worlds through subtle expression. Accents are welcome. Lived experience as an immigrant and/or caregiver is welcomed but not required. Experience with naturalistic acting, observational-style direction, or understated performances is an asset.
Sylvia
Ethnicity: Open Character Description – Sylvia: Sylvia is a middle-class woman in her 50s/60s living with mid-advanced stage early-onset dementia. Though not elderly or frail, she requires near-constant support from live-in caregivers and lives in her family’s original home. Sylvia speaks rarely, and only in short, simple phrases. Her world has narrowed, and her gaze often appears distant or dreamlike. She is calm, with softened, understated expressions—a closed-lip smile, downcast eyes, subtle physical responses. Yet Sylvia is not passive. Her attention is drawn to small, tangible things—textures, movements, repetitive tasks—with a kind of quiet, childlike curiosity. These moments ground her, offering flickers of engagement and emotional presence. Her relationship with Marina is often wordless but deeply felt—built through the rhythm of care, touch, and proximity. The role is emotionally rich, primarily physical and observational, requiring nuanced, internalized performance. Seeking: A performer with strong physical and emotional control, comfortable with minimal dialogue and conveying subtle inner life. Open to performers with lived experience related to caregiving or cognitive change.
Eric
Eric is a wannabe writer with a depressive streak. Running out of money, he can find the strength to do little more than lie on his couch. When Matt reaches out, Eric chooses at first to ignore him. But lonely, and losing his sense of self, he begins to wonder if he can really afford to push yet another person away, even if that person is Matt.
Matt
Matt has good career prospects, but he also has a reputation for being a bully. Ostracised by his friends, he finds himself forced to rethink his behaviour. He remembers that his old friend Eric lives in the city where his upcoming work conference is taking place. He reaches out, hoping to make up for past wrongs.
