2 roles
PATRICIA FLUEBANK is a straight-A’s chemistry whiz and classical music nerd, a nice girl who plays a mean Mozart on her giant upright bass. Tired of living under the micro-managing thumb of her high-powered mom, she leaps at the chance to piss her off by joining a punk band with the intimidating school badass Lupe,who’s actually kinda cute, really… when she’s not being an asshole.
PRIORITIZING INDIGENOUS ACTORS. TORO is Lupe’s best friend since childhood and co-founder of the much-maligned punk rock band, La Mala Teta. A jovial, good-natured kid, raised by a serious but loving single dad, he’s not too fussed about the “signature sound” Lupe has developed. As long as he can bang on drums, he’s happy. Sure, Lupe can be kinda intense sometimes, but he knows she’s good people.
