2 roles
The Character: A whirlwind of energy, brains, and fearlessness. She is obsessed with video games, adventurous, and completely undaunted by adversity. Think *"Dora the Explorer" meets "Indiana Jones."*Always moving, striking "heroic" poses, and pointing with her sword. Performance Note: The actor must play the stakes as 100% real. To Heaven, losing a video game feels like the absolute end of the world, which makes her ultimate sacrifice of the real treasure in Scene 7 incredibly powerful.
The Character: Heaven’s loyal, adventurous, and slightly more grounded best friend—the "Watson" to her "Sherlock." He provides brilliant comedy as the "voice of reason" who gets swept up in Heaven's chaos. Language Requirement: Must be bilingual (English/Spanish). His bilingualism shouldn't feel like a lesson; it should feel like his natural reaction when he’s excited or scared. Key Physicality: Expressive "scared" faces; clutches the treasure map like it’s a security blanket.
