Roles
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Lead | JANINE | Female 65 - 75 Years old |
Description [JANINE KELLER] 65+; any ethnicity. Retired Journeyman Plumber. This is how shemet Kent, Dana & Dana's husband Chris (the other bowlers on her team). She is the captain of No 'F' in Strikes and rightfully named the team as such since strikes for them are few and far between. As the heart and soul of the group, Janine is a fountain of knowledge with a knack for being right and isn't shy about having the final say. A little bit temperamental, and very superstitious, her wittiness often leads her into laughing at her own jokes. | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Lead | KENT | Male 65 - 75 Years old |
Description KENT BURKE, 65+; any ethnicity. He is the elder of the team who is sociable but secretly grumbles about everything. In his early 70s. Works part time as a grounds keeper at a Golf Cour se. He is the charismatic laid back raconteur of the team. With his social charms and secret grumbles, his love of classic comedy of 'Fawlty Towers' to 'The Pink Panther' and his love for anything John Candy mixes well with his taste for nachos. An expert on all types, his zest for food and life in general is unyielding, ever creating daily escapades that he loves to share with his team. | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Lead | CHRIS | Male 50 - 55 Years old |
Description [CHRIS BEAN] Early 50's, any ethnicity. A Power Engineer married to Dana Bean. Often rants about Global Conspiracies and economic woes . A negative, yet witty, social butterfly, he is often looking for the next thing to complain about all the while searching the bowling alley for clues of magnetic pin-controlling devices and pin holding gremlins! | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Lead | Dana | Female 50 - 55 Years old |
Description DANA has been cast | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Lead | Jacob | Male 22 - 29 Years old |
Description [JACOB MUNROE] in his 20's. First Nation's Filmmaker. After Dana mistakes Jacob for being the newest member on their team and drags him on to play, Jacob quickly adapts and considers the team as his second family. His quiet demeanour masks a fierce competitor, butnot his ferocious appetite, which is why he often steals Kent's nachos when no one is looking. | ||
