Roles
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Lead | Gio | Male 18 - 24 Years old |
Description Gio is a breezy and suave teenager. Though he is not the most intelligent or athletic, he does know his way around and keeps a cool crowd around him. Gio’s only setback is he struggles to put himself out there, after all the unfortunate experiences he hadwith past lovers/friends. Being the caring and loving guy he is, his intention when he notices Annalisa alone is to only brighten up her day. However, taking a chance with her ultimately causes him to rethink his ideology. This role does include a two second kiss between the two main characters, and the actor will need to be available for around 5 days of recordings and rehearsal in the three weeks leading up to production. Song and Dance skills would be an asset to this film, but not required. | ||

| Lead | Annalisa | Female 18 - 24 Years old |
Description Annalisa is a lovely and outgoing girl with high hopes and dreams. She is very intelligent, humble, and practically always in a good mood whenever seen at school. However, she does suffer from having a selfish and controlling boyfriend which prevents her from socializing with most guys at school, even as just friends. As the feeling is mutual with Gio, meeting him was the best thing to happen to her in a while and as he helped her open her mind up to her potential excellence, she wants nothing more than to return the favour. This role does include a two second kiss between the two main characters, and the actor will need to be available for around 5 days of recordings and rehearsal in the three weeks leading up to production. Song and Dance skills would be an asset to this film, but not required. | ||

| Principal | Deacon | Male 18 - 24 Years old |
Description Deacon is your typical athlete with the “captain of the varsity team” attitude. He got the chance to first speak to Annalisa in freshman year due to Gio’s kindness, prompting them to get closer and eventually be together. His hate for Gio is evident all throughout because according to Deacon, if he can’t have her, no one will. Though he once cared for Annalisa, he still managed to remain the self-absorbed and dense boy he once was who hasn’t matured enough to realize the world is bigger than just him. The actor will need to be available for the 3-4 days of rehearsal in the three weeks leading up to production. Singing skills would be an asset to this film, but not required. | ||
