Marlon van der ...
English speaking actors wanted for psychological drama
- 4 main characters, 2 men, 2 women. Fluent English speakers.
All people should be in 30 years or older. It is quite a dramatic script that could not be played by younger looking people. Again, all characters during the dinner party, other than Pete and the butler are delusions.
Pete
Pete is a former doctor, who cared deeply about his work and career. He took pride in looking after his patients and treating/curing them. Pete once had a family but is now a widow after his wife died in a car accident while pregnant. This incident has dramatically affected Pete’s life as he has now developed a multiple personality disorder which also has resulted in him being too ill to perform his job.
John
John is terminally ill and is a very close friend to Pete, since Pete is his carer and always the one to take care of John. Moreover John has a life reminds Pete of his former life. He has a healthy son, a good career and a beautiful house with lots of money on his bank account. Unfortunately he won’t enjoy this since he is sick and he is looking for someone who can take care of his child.
Jessica
Jessica is a close friend of John. They spend a lot of time together laughing and talking about life. Especially about life, since Jessica always wanted to have a child but is incapable of getting a child. However she does have a husband but they’re not very close any more. Jessica has a very powerful and strong personality and is not afraid to say what she thinks.
Kathryn
Kathryn is the sister of John. Unfortunately they’re not very close any more. They both choose to go for the ‘career life’ instead of the ‘family life’. Therefore they don’t spend much time together and most of the time Kathryn doesn’t really care about other people as long as it’s going good with her company. Kathryn is a cold person and quite dominant, if she wants something, she will get it.
- Butler
Quite a small part with little text. However, is a key character in the twist that will get Pete to realize the guests at the table are just imaginative.
