Note: All the teenagers are played by actors in their 20s.

Annie:

Female, African-American, 18+ to play 16. Vulnerable, with a tough outer shell. There is an underlying softness and sensitivity to her—a girl that is identifiable as ‘savable’.

Antwoine:

Male, African-American, to play 23. Unbelievably smooth and attractive—the kind of guy who’s good at ‘keeping it real’. Successful, but still lives in his old neighborhood.

Myrna:

Female, African-American, late 30s/40s. Annie’s mother. There is an underlying sadness to Myrna that tells us she has missed out on many things, but she is not overtly sad in nature. She only hints at the inner life she maintains.

Keera:

Female, 18+ to play 16. Earnest and sincere, but not naïve. Capable of being playful, as well as persistent and persuasive. Any ethnicity.
