Description 31 years old, all ethnicities man. Neurotic, Insecure.Jacob has decided to turn his life around and be kinder to people.

| Supporting | David | Male 25 - 35 Years old |
Description 31 years old, all ethnicities man. Articulate, Sharp.David is very well spoken, capable of convincing people of nearly anything. He has put this talent to good use as the salesman in Jacob’s business. They are also roommates and old friends. In demeanour he is flamboyant and charming, but this has affected his personal life where he struggles between being nice to people's face and criticizing them as soon as they leave the room. | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Supporting | Thompson | Male 18 - 25 Years old |
Description 21 years old, all ethnicities man. Friendly, Emotional, Naive.Thompson is the first of Margo’s affairs - he’s a star athlete, physically beautiful with a kind heart.

His wisdom about the world is largely confined to things his coach has taught him during game warm ups for basketball. | ||

| Supporting | Santiago | Male 18 - 25 Years old |
Description 18 to 25 years old, Hispanic man. Mysterious, Serene.Santiago is the second of Margo’s affairs. He has recently immigrated from Spain. She met him while taking Spanish classes. His strong accent and cerebral manner make everything he says seem very profound, even though it’s often not clear what he means. He is a romantic who likes writing poetry, so he sympathizes with Margo’s irrationality and is more supportive of her art than anyone else. | ||

| Principal | Kay | Female 21 - 28 Years old |
Description 25 years old, all ethnicities woman. Confrontational, Brash.Kay is a confrontational woman with strong unqualified opinions.
