4 roles
Female presenting. The high school drama teacher that’s always pushing the envelope in potentially inappropriate ways. Earnest about theater and proving herself.
Male presenting. Yoga practitioner/actor. Politically correct to a fault, a big one. He’s that confident guy everyone loves, but his logical PC thinking takes weird turns.
Female presenting. Has looks that would have been cast as ethnic in 1950s movies. Without guile. Sexy and hot, but not bright.
Male presenting. The academic. Awkward elementary school history teacher with dramatic aspiration but no experience.
