2 roles
(Lead supporting). A powerful but oppressive character in the eyes of others. He has had trouble keeping his son from leaving with his friends in previous nights, until now. He sees all teenagers to be delinquents and hopes that tonight he can get both of the boys to listen to him by striking fear into them. (This has the opposite effect) Acting Traits: -Ability to be intimidating with and without dialogue. -Comfortable with shouting/yelling with convincing anger.
Although she too sees the boys as delinquents & is repulsed by Keith’s casual mentions of breaking the law, she nevertheless cares for her son. Kind & loving, but any attempt from her to show that is repressed with his Father’s presence. Instead she is asked to call the police on them & shows that despite these feelings, she has become just as helpless as them. Ability to portray repressed love for Cody as well as a comedic disgust for his ‘delinquency’. Comfortable with crying/fake crying.
