KENNETH: (he/him, late 20s/30s) Mysterious. A lonely small-town outcast who believes time travel is impossible and is looking for a partner to join him. His outward oddness makes him seem dangerous at first, but it belies a bumbling warmth, a wounded romanticism, and years of shame. An authentic indie-pop baritenor to G# with high belt and falsetto a plus.
JEFF: (he/him, 40s) Has a mid-level job at a mid-level office and is entering his mid-life crisis — which he is in denial about, so he doubles down on his masculinity and adolescence to keep the fun going long past closing time. An authentic indie-rock Baritenor to G# with strong falsetto a plus.
TRISTAN/ AS CAST: (male identifying, 20s/30s) Tristan - 30s, low voice, A gay man with masculine energy. A small-town librarian who believes in the power of tactile, holdable history. He connects with Arnau, helps him out of his shell and towards a shot at romance. Doubles as a sketchy FBI agent, an old man and area receptionist. An authentic indie-pop low baritone to E/F with great comedy chops.
