4 roles
LEAD ROLE. The self-centered “birthday boy” whose celebration takes a dramatic turn. Initially carefree and dismissive of others' needs, Kip undergoes a transformation as he learns the value of empathy and compassion after facing a near-death situation.
LEAD ROLE. A resilient and slightly quirky woman who confronts Kip about his loud music and party. Despite his rudeness, Maisy remains steadfast in her commitment to helping others, showcasing wisdom and kindness even in the face of adversity.
LEAD. A friend of Kip’s, the last woman standing at his party. She’s fun and nice and the first to suspect that something’s amiss with Kip’s birthday cake. She shows her loyalty and concern without the dramatics but is very much so worried about Kip when he has an allergic reaction. HMU & WARDROBE: All Scenes, 1 Look, 1 Night: She is dressed for a house party. Dressy casual, jeans, nice shirt, comfortable but stylish, hair and makeup done but not over the top.
LEAD ROLE. Like Tory, he’s a good friend of Kip’s and the last man standing - literally. He’s having a good time at the party and even though it’s clearly come to its end, he’s down to keep it going. He also shows concern for Kip when he has an allergic reaction, but he plays off his worry with a chill attitude.
