Conner Brown for Matthew
Main Character
Age: 15
Grade: Sopmhore
Synopsis:
Matthew struggles with asserting his desires, finding himself susceptible to influence and persuasion. This tendency to acquiesce, even when he harbors reservations, stems from his fear of disappointing others, leading him to consistently prioritize their needs over his own.
Over the course of his narrative, Matthew confronts this pattern of self-neglect that has taken a toll on him both physically and emotionally. His journey is one of self-discovery, where he learns the importance of setting healthy boundaries with others, marking a pivotal shift towards self-care and assertiveness.
Personality-wise, Matthew is generally passive, yet he harbors a latent temper that flares up when things don't proceed as expected or when he encounters setbacks. His habit of repressing his emotions often culminates in explosive outbursts, highlighting the internal conflict between his desire to please and the need to honor his own feelings.
Performance I am looking for:
Looking for someone who can pull off a passive, low-energy voice, and also be passive-aggressive and angry.
- male teen
- male young adult
No! I'm sick of this, Brock. Every time I do something you disagree with, you bring up Mom. She's dead! And I know that she would be happy that I saved this cat. I want to support people!
Look, I heard…you want him to pay, I can I just pay for the debt he owes you. Well …..I have $8.25 (Being Passive)
Feeling obligated might also be why you're still seeing that muscle head, whom you've been dating since third grade. Also about that muscle head, I've already told him not to call me "little bro" ever since we first met.
