Tidings of Dread
Corey Groh for Cole
Male, late 20s. An agitated Christmas/Santa hater due to past negative experiences. Believes that Santa only creates hopeless doubt in kids’ lives. He can be very passionate and aggressive towards this topic. Has a criminal history.
Must be able to do two different voices: narration/voiceover and in-scene voice. Cole’s lines will go back and forth between the two, so if you could differentiate your interpretation of both voices that would be great.

(narrating/VO) I wonder if he has any idea the seed of doubt he has created. Promising them whatever they want, as long as they are good. What happens when those kids don’t get what they want? The spiral they will go through? Were they not good enough? Does Father Christmas not love them? Is everything a lie? Despicable.
(pissed; in response to Santa trying to sell/market their product to a kid) Seriously? You’re trying to sell him a glitter ball? He’s grieving!
(frustrated and pissed with strangers looking at him) What are you looking at? Merry fucking Christmas!
