ROLES

Diego:

Age 18-22. Latino male youth.

A comedic straight man with good sensibilities. Never flashy or loud. He just wants to do a good job, but he can’t help his fascination with June and her pro-filing skills making him dream of a life less ordinary.

LEAD

June:

Age 18-26 Asian female.

Warm, exacting, thoughtful, intelligent, strong-willed, and quirky. While she’s extraordinarily deft at her work, she can’t quite control the direction of her heart. She wants something more, but doesn’t quite know what that is.

LEAD

Vasquez:

Age 40-60 Latino male.

A very enthusiastic dreamer who sometimes forgets what he was talking about, and doesn’t really know how computers work. But does he know what real success is, or does he just use a lot of buzzwords?

LEAD

The Commissioner:

Age 40-60 Female.

Strong and in control. She’s a fire-starter. She runs the underground filing championships and has the ambition to one day rival the NFL.

SUPPORTING

Ed:

Age 40-60 Male.

Tall, lanky, looks like he hasn’t seen the sun in a long while. Soft-spoken and lurchy. He has seen a lot in his time at DataMart, but isn’t the kind to gossip. Usually.

SUPPORTING

Albert:

Age 35-50 Male.

Lonely and odd, a data analyst who doesn’t quite understand the world or any of the people in it. His dulcet phone manner simultaneously makes him a target and an involuntary therapist.

SUPPORTING

Oscar:

Age 35-50 Male.

Diego's work buddy who is happy to talk, and would love to explain the world to you if you gave him the time. Open and cheerful.

SUPPORTING

Tim:

Age 30-60 Male, balding and skinny.

Loves to drum with his fingers on the desk. Hates confrontation. Prefers to be left on his own.

SUPPORTING

Maria:

Age 25-35 Latina.

Quiet, observational. Her ability to put up with Vasquez’s ridiculous requests is her great strength. A master of facial expressions.

SUPPORTING

Dagmar:

Age 25-45 Female.

Quirky, strange, comedic personality. The oddball of the office who thinks she’s perfectly normal. Has a stilted, off-pitch way of talking.

SUPPORTING

Jason:

Age 25-35 Caucasian Male.

Thinks he’s awesomely cool, but his idea of cool probably hasn’t changed since 5th grade. Loves wearing shorts and jerseys and his hat off sideways.

SUPPORTING

Ring Announcer:

Age 40 – 60 Male.

Imagine Michael Buffer, Howard Cosell, or Charles Barkley. Has a big frame, big voice, a booming personality.

SUPPORTING

Randy:

Age 30-50 male.

Sportscaster with a great voice.
