CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS:

• Logan, the boy (Male, 18 - 27): A born-again virgin, Logan takes on Rachel as his girlfriend but with hesitance. It’s only through her charm and innocence does he realize he can fall in love again after all.
• Paul, the friend (Male, 18 – 24): Friend-zoned since he was three, Paul has pined for Rachel but never had the courage to get her for himself. When Logan picks her up in a switch hijack, Paul decides it’s now or never to finally get her to love him as he does her.
• Ensemble (Male & Female, Various Ages): The ensemble plays everyone else, and there is a lot to do! There are robot scientists, referees, fisherman, lovers, even the personification of a hangover – all of which the ensemble will cover. The ensemble also acts as narrators for the play.
