CASTING BREAKDOWN
Rosalind- female, 20-30. Kate’s younger sister, Zander’s twin. Not any particular body type or look, but someone who you are immediately drawn to on stage, someone who has an underlying wild energy. Performance artists in Silver Lake.
Zander-male, 20-30. Kate’s younger brother, Rosalind’s twin. Not any particular look. Desperate to be heard and reunite his family, living and dead.
Kate-female, 25-35. Sarcastic, composed, although there must be an underlying sweetness that particularly comes out in the early scenes with her family. Wants to move forward and feels her family pulls her back.
Darlene- female, 30-60. Mother to Rosaline, Kate & Zander. Has a sweet side with a somewhat strange edge.
Pearl- any age (though not a child), male or female, just someone that hasa very intense (specifically comic) energy on stage. Woman they meet in the middle of the desert.
Michael- 30 and up- Father of Kate, Rosalind & Zander. Grounded, intense, haunting.
