BABY SHOWER KATIE
SEEKING:
REBECCA: 30s, she/her. Upbeat, bright, warm, over-functioning, slightly rigid, highly competent, has never forgotten to write a thank you note; she has an ingratiating normie exterior that belies a weird, sensitive soul and a steely core. Rebecca has a high-paying job, a nice husband, a goldendoodle, and (as of very recently) a cute house in the suburbs. She has always known that she wants to be a mother and that she'll be very, very good at it.
HANNAH: 30s, she/her. Charismatic, chaotic, quick, funny, intense, hyper-verbal, rebellious, deeply sensitive and dark; loves to party, but parties to fill the void. Hannah prides herself on departing from the norms of her and Rebecca's suburban upbringing. She lives in Brooklyn and has a cool creative job and a wide circle of friends. She has always known that she does not want children.
DR. ALMOND: 60s she/her. Katie B.'s mother. The most terrifying, high-status grande dame in Scarsdale, Dr. Almond is in control of any situation she enters. An actual medical doctor who raised her children while working and keeping a Martha Stewart-level house, Dr. Almond combines an obsession with feminine codes of etiquette and politeness with a naked will to power - but underneath her firehose speech and controlling relationship with her daughter, Dr. Almond is a very smart woman who is capable of being loving, loyal, and perceptive.
THE KATIES: 30s, she/her, all played by the same actor:
KATIE B.: Rebecca and Hannah's close childhood friend. Precious, anxious, sweet, and pure; deeply kind and good, slightly shaky, seems younger than she is; happily, an observer of/the third wheel in Rebecca and Hannah's much closer and more intense friendship. Katie has also re-settled in the suburb she, Rebecca, and Hannah grew up in and lives in fear of social judgement and her terrifying mother Dr. Almond.
KATIE M.: Hannah's boss. The ultimate woo-woo alpha Park Slope mama, Katie M. rules her brownstone and her company with performative empathy, an emphasis on Alignment, and expensive non-toxic cleaning products. Happiest when spending time with her family, participating in a sound bath, or recommending a book/podcast episode/essential oil blend.
KATIE S.: Rebecca and Hannah's acquaintance from high school. An influencer girlie with beachy waves, a Stanley cup, a thriving TikTok account, the whole nine. Crucially, though, Katie S. is NOT a mean girl: she wants the best for everyone and is an incredibly kind, warm person who nothing bad has ever happened to.
