38 roles

DiegoMale17-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Diego is passionate, high-strung, and deeply tender. He moves between confrontation and vulnerability with ease, fueled by an Argentine lilt and emotional intensity that makes him impossible to ignore. He is an emotional whirlwind—equal parts fierce and compassionate. "AT BIRTH"

BrittneyFemale17-18 y.o.White / Caucasian

Brittney embodies down-home Southern charm with a big heart and big dreams. Though sometimes slow on the uptake, her optimism and warmth make her endlessly endearing. Her vulnerability and resilience create a soulful, layered character who finds light in life’s small moments. "AT BIRTH"

MattMale17-18 y.o.White / Caucasian

Matt is a lean, confident, fast-talking country boy who thrives on energy, aggression, and bravado. He’s a scrappy, small-but-mighty presence, full of brash humor and punchy swagger—a bold, unapologetic force on stage. "AT BIRTH"

SavannahFemale17-18 y.o.White / Caucasian

Savannah is bold, brash, and completely unfiltered. She carries the wisdom of a hard life but never loses her raunchy humor and defiant spirit. The role requires an actress who can balance comedy and raw truth, bringing depth to Savannah’s mix of toughness and tenderness. "AT BIRTH"

The ParrotMale17-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Not just any bird—this parrot is a scene-stealing voice chameleon (similarly staged as Audrey II). The role requires an actor who can switch effortlessly between accents (Southern drawl, international dialects) while delivering comedic punchlines with perfect timing. "AT BIRTH"

The DogMale17-18 y.o.All ethnicities

A ferocious, aggressive, and wild canine presence. The Dog’s voice is a character of its own, creating the illusion of a dangerous, unpredictable animal lurking just offstage. "AT BIRTH"

The BabyMale17-18 y.o.All ethnicities

A fussy, wailing, unpredictable infant. The role requires an actor who can authentically voice a range of baby sounds—from coos to full-throttle cries—bringing humor and raw emotional texture to the performance. "AT BIRTH"

Elizabeth SiddalFemale17-18 y.o.White / Caucasian

A painter, poet, and muse who rose from poverty to artistic fame. Shy yet intelligent, deeply expressive, and poised, she is torn between artistic ambition and personal sacrifice. The role requires physicality—her presence is visually and emotionally significant. Historically, she is known for her red hair (wig or natural). "OPHELIA’S SWAN SONG"

Walter Deverell / Dante Gabriel RossettiMale17-18 y.o.White / Caucasian

Walter is charismatic and magnetic but humble. Dante, in contrast, is grandiose, pompous, and obsessed with legacy. He revels in his own voice, believing himself as legendary as his idol, Dante Alighieri. This role demands an actor who can balance warmth with self-important theatrics. "OPHELIA’S SWAN SONG"

Emma Hill / Deverell’s SisterFemale17-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Emma is flirtatious, romantic, and believes in fairytale love. In contrast, Deverell’s sister is fierce, tough, and fiercely protective of her brother. This performer must seamlessly shift between Emma’s airy charm and Deverell’s sister’s no-nonsense resilience. "OPHELIA’S SWAN SONG"

FinMale17-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Seven months pregnant and buzzing with excitement for life. While her twin Phil is a thrill-seeking tech bro obsessed with masculinity, Fin is his polar opposite—open, spiritual, and ready to embrace the unknown with joy. "SNOW"

MJFemale17-18 y.o.All ethnicities

A force of intellect and challenge, MJ is based on real-life archaeologist Marija Gimbutas, a key figure in Feminist Studies. She is intense, deeply passionate, and not afraid to question everything. "SNOW"

DellaFemale17-18 y.o.All ethnicities

A doula and poet and the practical one in her relationship. She is steady, grounded, and deeply connected to life, death, and birth. "SNOW"

GigiFemale17-18 y.o.All ethnicities
