2 roles
A quiet and imaginative boy who tends to “space out” as he imagines being an astronaut as a way to cope with his social anxiety. This astronaut persona he puts on is the representation of the confidence George wishes he had. Deep down he wishes he had the courage to reach out and connect to others but his own mind holds him back. These things combine to create a stressful and uncomfortable situation when George is left sitting alone at his middle school dance. (Any ethnicity)
A kind and extroverted girl who has a strong sense of self. She wants to feel connected to others and is happy to reach out to those who need a helping hand. (Any ethnicity)
