Roles
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Lead | BAKAR | Female 25 - 30 Years old |
Description Male, 25-30, Black (BIPOC), is an HIV Positive addict with an impatient, crusty and volatile disposition in the same vein as Logan Roy in Succession. A sensitive manipulator but not a victim, Bakar understands his unchecked rage prevents him from getting what he wants, so he spends most of his time trying to keep his cool.A HINT TO BAKAR and THE SCENE: This is a nuanced drama with dark comedy woven throughout. Try resisting the impulse to lean into the “AIDS of it all” concentrating instead on each character’s motives. | ||

| Lead | DR.KIMBLE | Male 60 - 69 Years old |
Description Male, 60’s, White, is a straight, good-natured, overworked, HIV/AIDS doctor who has serviced the gay men in Vancouver for years. He is a non-judgmental ally who’s seen it all and isn’t fazed by volatile patients like Bakar. All he wants is to get through his day of patients, ride his motorcycle home, kick back and enjoy the game with his wife and friends.A HINT TO BAKAR and THE SCENE: This is a nuanced drama with dark comedy woven throughout. Try resisting the impulse to lean into the “AIDS of it all” concentrating instead on each character’s motives. | ||
