Comments
Although not a ton of dialogue, this character is one of the few (outside the main character's family) who appears multiple times throughout the film. Special place/presence in the story and we are looking for him across the country. If cast from outside NL, performer will receive air tickets, hotel, per diem, travel time, and holds days etc.

This film is an offbeat, heartwarming comedy. Although a part of this quirky world, performances should still be grounded and realistic.

Re. accent, your own is perfect! Although set in Newfoundland & Labrador, this character is not expected to have NL accent. Please do not do any special East Coast Canadian accents, thank you!

Description
BIPOC. Graduate student in Biology who shares a lab with Audrey and her dad. A real keener. Friendly, smart, and - although Audrey won’t admit - kind of a cutie. Unfortunately for Audrey, Alan is being supervised by her dad’s departmental nemesis, Dr. O’Leery. Turns out Alan remembers Audrey from school; could there be a tiny spark? After Audrey’s dad dies, she finds him cleaning out her dad’s office (O’Leery’s orders), and she lets him have it. Big time. Appears in multiple scenes.
