2.22 CHARACTERS – all characters have a similar stage time/playing time so all four roles are large roles
Jenny – mid – late 30s; Primary school teacher, first time mother, has a very young child and so very much still in the trenches of early parenthood - has been experiencing strange occurrences in her home, whilst dealing with her husband being away for a few days, particularly at 2:22 a.m. She is anxious, tired and increasingly convinced that her house is haunted.
Sam – mid – late 30s; Jenny’s husband, a scientist and so very sceptical of the supernatural events. His beliefs clash with Jenny’s and causes tension throughout.
Lauren – mid – late 30s; A therapist. A friend of Jenny and Sam, Lauren is one of the dinner guests that come to the house. Torn between believing and not, she spends the evening drinking wine and reliving stories.
Ben – late 30s/early 40s; Lauren’s new partner – a builder and a firm believer in the supernatural. A bit of a cheeky chap but with a serious side to him also.
There are also two police officers who have about seven lines each. I likely will not audition specifically for these given the size of the roles, but will consider if someone specifically wants to go for these roles.
