BREAKDOWN

WALDEN

SEEKING:

STELLA

– Any ethnicity, female. Early thirties. Cassie’s twin sister. Former NASA colony architect, her mouth moves quickly to catch up with her even faster brain, her thoughts zigzag like tracing a constellation. She is still deeply heartbroken she will never go to space, and harbors secrets and resentment as she struggles to welcome her sister into her new life. Born first.

CASSIE

– Any ethnicity, female. Early thirties. Stella’s twin sister. NASA botanist, physically strong, seems put together in the midst of all her success, but inside is doubtful and falling apart. Overwhelmed by the deeply human experience she is having since landing back on Earth. She digs and uproots. Looking for a way to blow up her life, as well as looking for a way to get closer to her sister. Born second.

BRYAN

– Any ethnicity, male. Mid-thirties. Stella’s fiancé. A member of the populist political movement Earth Advocates, laid back, kind, emotionally open, strong, still grieving the loss of his brother, struggling with the wall Stella has built around herself.
