CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS
RYAN – Gender (M), Character Age (17-18), Caucasian or Mixed Ethnicity
Accessibly good looking, athletic and charismatic. A senior in high school who used to babysit Winona and knows her family well. This character has an air of confidence and security. Ryan comes from a wealthy family and although he self-assured this comes with a naive quality, having spent little time outside of his small time.
Must have a driver’s license.
BRAD – Gender (M), Character Age (17-18), Caucasian
Physically imposing – an athletic body with a parallel love for food and beer (character’s look can range from athletic-big to unathletic-big). Brad is Ryan’s best friend, and a senior in high school. Brad is calculated, socially manipulative and selfish. He can be a bully and has a strong personality. Brad can be mean.
WINONA – Gender (F), Character Age (13-14), Caucasian or Mixed Ethnicity
A young girl – athletic, thoughtful, strong-minded – who follows her intuition and thinks outside the box. In the physical and mental state of adolescence, can appear older or younger depending on the situation, with an expressive face. Winona is sincere and curious, can appear guarded and is strong willed.
Must be able to ride a bike. Must be able to swim.
PAIGE – Gender (F), Character Age (13-14), Any Ethnicity
Winona’s best friend. She is playful, goofy, imaginative and curious about adulthood – more so than Winona.
Must be able to swim.
