SEEKING

One Understudy For:

Michael in WHAT HAPPENED WAS…: Male, 40s. A cynical and socially awkward paralegal, Michael presents himself as an intellectual crusader who is secretly writing an exposé on the legal profession. His condescending and detached demeanor hides a profound sense of professional failure and a desperate, almost hallucinatory level of self-interest.

Deadwood in NEW BORN: Male, L40s–E50s. A pragmatic and insightful tree surgeon who values professional competence and physical vitality. He struggles to reconcile his deep capacity for love with need for liveliness — though morally complicated, he remains courageous in his inability to live dishonestly.

One Understudy For:

Jackie in WHAT HAPPENED WAS…: Female, 40. An executive assistant at a New York law firm, Jackie is a lonely woman who projects a nervous, eager-to-please energy to mask her deep-seated isolation. Though she appears vulnerable, she eventually reveals a darker, more complex side through a violent children’s story she has written.

Light in NEW BORN: Female, 40, BIPOC. London-based illustrator and mother who harbors a quiet restlessness, finding her love of her family and her desire for freedom to be equally intense. Her search for release forces her to navigate what happens when a fantasy becomes a reality.

Rattle: Marianna Gailus — Female, 20s, white. A resilient and observant young woman, living a life of labor in 1890s Wyoming. She is powered by a defiant spirit and a deep sense of justice, leading her to challenge societal silences. A determination to call out moral ambiguity in others causes her to confront her own judgments.
