2 roles
Lead role. A fiercely devoted adoptive mother whose love for her son Max is matched only by her anxiety over losing him. Hyper-vigilant, controlling, and emotionally volatile when her role as “mom” is threatened. Claire is driven by fear — hiding the truth of Max’s adoption in a desperate attempt to protect him.
LEAD ROLE. A delicate-looking but quietly formidable grandmother who’s spent years aching for the family she lost. Her first encounter with Max is charged with raw emotion — sorrow, hope, and a longing that never faded. Abagail’s flaw is her desperation, which blinds her to the emotional impact of her sudden reappearance in Max's life.
