Character Breakdown

Tanner - male, 20’s - the picture of young masculinity, with an ownership of himself bought after years of being bullied as a kid but finally finding himself in college. Heavy stage combat role.

Cook - male, 35-45 - once a stout handsome and athletic type, but clearly past his glory days despite his relative youth…and clearly resentful of the fact. Heavy stage combat role.

Stephanie - female, 20’s - sweet southern charm and no-nonsense independence; someone who is all too often underestimated and loves to surprise those foolish enough to do so. Moderate stage combat role.

Server - any gender, any age - your everyday avatar of customer service, and very over it. Light stage combat role.
