Her brother, who had until now lived in the house their parents had willed to him just enjoying his bachelor life, starts to help. Chelle is determined to get her life back to normal with the help of her doctors when it all goes wrong.
This story is set in Toronto Canada. It deals with some sensitive topics such as, death, grief, illness, etc. Please audition responsibly
Thank you all so much for your auditions! I'll be going over all of them and making selections over the next week or so. I'll contact everyone to let you know if you did/didn't get roles and offer feedback if you'd like.
Thanks again for all the interest!
A few have asked about going off script. The answer is yes! 100% yes! If you have a different way to convey the lines or you'd like to ad lib please go for it! We tend to modify the script during round tables anyway dependant on how the chosen actor says certain things so please don't feel constrained to just what's there. Good luck out there!
Caleb is in the main cast and will appear in some capacity in most episodes. He is Chelle’s (main character) step brother (his father married Chelle’s mother when they were young, 5 and 9), avid fps gamer, living a pretty carefree life. They’re pretty close and their parents have passed away. Natural Canadian (southern Ontario) accent is preferred but all will be considered
what do the doctors say?
*sad* Chelle you....can't be doing that anymore
*furious, she stopped taking her meds* GOD DAMMIT CHELLE! You NEED that medication! I know you don't like it but how do you like us finding you on the floor thinking this is the time you hit your head and died? *in a small voice* we're scared too
Ravi is a minor character but will show up in 2-3 episodes. Ravi is a man who left his home country after a successful career for a little adventure and to pursue his dream of starting a food truck. Chelle is a big fan of his masala though the specific dish, his name, country and type of food can all change based on the actor chosen so feel free to play with the lines a little. Genuine accents only please. Above all Ravi is friendly, happy, considerate and kind
Ay Chelle! Back again! I told you when I first saw you, you'll be back. My masala is the best in the whole city!
*goes into truck and gets paper bag containing preordered food* Here you go! I put in small salad with parsley so you don't get the bad breath
This character shows up in episode 2 after the first hospitalization. They have 7 smaller lines but may show up in later episodes
I hope you slept well? I'm Dr Horowitz. How are you feeling?
Good! So I have your scans and some of your history here. It looks like you were here during the pandemic with quite the bad case. Had you had any symptoms after recovering from that and before this?
I'm going to recommend your family doctor refer you to a specialist because it looks like, to me, that there's a few things on your scan that bear further investigation. For now I'd like to keep you on the medication you're on currently until your doctor or specialist can review your case. If all goes well tonight I think we'll be fine to release you in the tomorrow
