Description:
Three strangers trying to achieve their dreams through hard work while facing the harsh reality of life’s unexpected moments. From an eviction notice, to broken promises and lies can Taz, Jordan, and Winston make it happen.
Breakdown:
| Role Name | Gender | Ethnicity | Age Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Taz | Female | Any Ethnicity | 25-30 | Comes from a well to do family, but has worked hard for everything. She has put herself through school while working two jobs to pay for books and rent. Fresh out of school, she now interns for a Marketing company while working two other jobs to make ends meet. Taz is a compassionate person on the shy side. She dislikes confrontation but will stand up for what she believes in if pushed. Taz is a no non-sense kind of girl who believes that through her hard work, she can achieve anything no matter what. |
| Jordan | Male | Any Ethnicity | 25-30 | Comes from a very strict religious family that believes the man of the house gets a job and provides. He is gay and his parents find this hard to believe and think that allowing him to go away to an art college has brainwashed him into liking men. Jordan went to school for fashion after discovering his love of the needle and thread when he would help his mother sew. While in school, he met up with a designer who now passes Jordan’s original clothes off as his own promising Jordan that the next show will be his. Because of this, Jordan works in a coffee shop to make ends meet. He still sews a few pieces by hand when he meets a person to inspire him. |
| Winston | Male | Any Ethnicity | 25-30 | Comes from a poor family. He is the eldest out of five and helps his mother raise his siblings. He didn’t finish high school. He uses his time looking for a good paying job that doesn’t involve a vegetable and has benefits. Winston secretly hates his mother because of the choices she's made; he believes that it has ruined his life. Now all he cares about is making money. He is very nonchalant and laid back about life. He puts on a smile, but is so sarcastic that no one could ever tell that he is serious. |
| Sara | Female | Any Ethnicity | 25-30 | Strongly believes that internships were invented by companies to get free labour. At the same time, because she has heard stories of others landing amazing jobs through internships, she is now at her tenth internship. She still lives at home with her overly supportive parents, who give her a monthly allowance. She likes eating sweets and mixes her coffee with chocolate bars. |
| Dan | Male | Any Ethnicity | 25-30 | He has such an asexual personality that the people around him forget that he is the epitome of classic disgusting male chauvinistic behavior and that its borderline nazi in its quirkiness. Dan works for the company in the Web Design department. He believes that if he can identify with someone of the opposite sex, he can get 'closer' to them to a point where they will eat out of his hands. |
| Dick | Male | Any Ethnicity | 31-40 | At the age where it seems like he should be retired, he is very old fashioned. Never in a rush to talk, or pay attention, he goes at his own pace. He feels entitled due to his age to act any way he sees fit. Always the first to voice his thoughts, he saunters around with his chin held high. |
