BREAKDOWN
MARION
Female, 40s. A recently widowed ornithologist. Highly intelligent. A force of nature who never thought she’d marry, and once swept into a huge love, she lost him. Charismatic, witty, articulate. A strong navigator who, for the first time, has no idea where to land.
STEPHEN
Male, 40s. A dancer. Everyone’s best friend. Super fun, witty, quick on the uptake with a biting sense of humor. Sensual; lives in his body. Fiercely loyal with a huge heart.
NICK
Male, 40s. A gentle giant (although not necessarily giant). A thinker. Quiet. Intense. Suffers from progressive MS and feels his partner slipping away. Analyzes the situation and protects others from pain. Even though he’s limping he would pick you up and carry you up the stairs above his head.
