Its about a girl that is trying to find herself after she dies. When Rose is reincarnated she realizes that she is important to the world. How? We will soon find out!
Character:
Gender:
Rosalee (20's ish)
Female
Description:
Quirky, cute, whimsical. Looks slightly slouchy and defeated, but she's very positive. She could never actually say or do anything that wouldn't endear you, even if you caught her stealing from your garden. It's easy to make her giggle. This morning she got stuck in a manhole, drove over 2 cats, and saved 3 others from certain death. All by 11AM, and all completely by accident. I think you know the type (it might be you)....
Role Requires Nudity?
No.
Character:
Gender:
Francine (30's ish)
Female
Description:
Older, more grounded friend of Rose. Sort of a 60% friend, 20% big sister, 20% aunt relationship to Rose. She has the warm presence of a catalog model.
Like I was just saying to the Rosalees--nothing fancy in the audition. I just want you to have a normal-sounding conversation with Rose (you decide what "normal" means to you). You can pick your nose, you can scratch your ankle, you can take a long pause, you go off on a tangent about the man-to-man defence--I don't care. Just be a person first, and we'll add some spice later if necessary.
Role Requires Nudity?

Two African-American twenty-somethings wake up in bed together having no recollection of how they arrived there. After parting ways without expectations of pursuing anything further, fate reunites them in a series of circumstances that compels them to spend the day together. Wandering the streets of San Francisco on a Sunday afternoon, the immediacy of their previous physical encounter leads them to explore each other in a succession of moments so intimate the vulnerability they share changes them forever. It's about being young and black in San Francisco, about gentrification, sex and fidelity in our generation.
