Please note that the characters all play within obvious stereotypes but undergo quite major shifts as the various episodes/scenes progress.

• Heather (perceived as the responsible girl, wholesome, secretly anorexic)
• Beth (perceived as naive, innocent - is easily influenced)
• Nona (perceived as the promiscuous sort - is worldly, flirty)
• Nick (stereotypical jock, has racist views)
• Curtis (Nick's residence roommate, perceived as the geek/an innocent)
• Damon (a musician, Nick's boyfriend, overachiever) ** must play keyboard or another instrument that may work with pop music OR be comfortable with using digitally recorded music
• Steve (perceived as the ladies man, is later perceived as more talk and less action/conservative)
• Ho-Li (Asian, homophobic - well... a complex guy. Role may be played by female actor)
