5 roles
Lead. (Must pass for university-aged woman) Kind, naive, and agreeable. Faye is freshly heartbroken and reluctantly becomes immersed in a new friend group that will bring out her underlying, unadulterated need for revenge. She struggles with self-doubt and feelings of rejection, making her susceptible to influence and desperate for connection.
Lead (Must pass for university-aged woman). Charismatic and mysterious. Katie is not only the ringleader of her friend group, but a deluded cult leader. She exudes confidence and has a knack for making others feel seen and understood, making her persuasive and a talented manipulator. Her witchy, charming, and humorous personality almost disguises her derangement.
Supporting (Must pass for university-aged woman) Energetic and outspoken. Scotty is the comedic relief of the group, often adding levity to tense situations. Humorous, blunt and unhinged, her derangement is more noticeable than that of her friends. A people pleaser, she is desperate to continually please Katie.
Supporting (Must pass for university-aged woman). Observant, empathetic, and loyal. Mia is kinder than Scotty but equally passionate about the group's cause. She shares a close bond with Nat, forged through shared trauma. Seemingly the most grounded and down-to-earth member of the unruly group.
Supporting (Must pass for university-aged woman). Sweet and seemingly innocent, Nat is very complimentary and giggly. She aims to impress Katie and like the other girls, is completely lost in the communal group delusion. She is quiet and agreeable, eager to support the girl's cause.
