2 roles

DOMMale26-39 y.o.All ethnicities

(Lead). Introverted, dry-humored, and deeply introspective. Dom has been quietly grappling with his diagnosis, planning a bucket-list-style road trip he never intended anyone to see. But when his friends find it, he’s thrown into the middle of his own final adventure — whether he’s ready or not. Must balance internal emotion with subtle comedic timing.

BERNIEMale26-39 y.o.All ethnicities

(Lead). Big energy. Bigger heart. Bernie is the kind of friend who suggests stealing a wheelchair to escape a hospital — and then actually does it. He’s unpredictable and reckless but always means well. His humor is a defense mechanism, and under all the chaos is someone terrified of losing his best friend. Strong comedic instincts with the ability to pivot to grounded emotional beats.
