CHARACTERS

  • LOGAN - Female - presenting, Caucasian-looking. The high school drama teacher that's always pushing the envelope in potentially inappropriate ways. Earnest about theater and proving herself.
  • JAXTON - Male - presenting, Caucasian-looking. Yoga practitioner/actor. Politically correct to a fault, a big one. He's that confident guy everyone loves, but his logical PC thinking takes weird turns.
  • ALICIA - Female-presenting, brunette, Caucasian-looking but has looks that would have been cast as “ethnic” in 1950s movies. Without guile. Sexy and hot, but not bright.
  • CADEN - Male-presenting, Caucasian-looking. The academic. Awkward elementary school history teacher with dramatic aspirations but no experience.

Additional roles may be needed to present the script’s “interludes” on film and/or live. These casting decisions will be based on who is available and when.
