| Character |
|---|
| LOUISA Female. High school age or slightly older. A theatre kid and a writer. Loves winning arguments. Cares deeply about others (and what they think of her). Holds herself to an impossible standard. Small chested. |
| AUDREY Female. High school age. Louisa’s close friend. Athlete. Whip smart. Very knowledgeable on social issues. Wise beyond her years. |
| MICHAEL Male. 30s-40s. Leads self-defense class. Very excited. Tries a little too hard to empower the girls, but he means well. |
| CHARLOTTE Female. 12-15 years old, must be noticeably younger than Louisa. Louisa’s sister. Laid back. Has a soft side, but doesn’t willingly let anyone know that. |
| JOHN Male. High school age. Louisa’s friend. Very fun to be around, but not the best friend to hold you while you cry or have your back – very much a fair-weather friend. Makes fun of his friends a lot, and it doesn’t always come off in a joking way. |
| PRESTON Male. High school age. Louisa’s ex-boyfriend. Says he respects women so he can get into relationships (in which he disrespects women). |
| MOM Female. 40s. Louisa’s mom (and a great one). Was very liberal for the conversative area she grew up in, but her feminist views aren’t quite as modern as Louisa’s. |
| DIRECTOR Male. 30s-40s. Louisa’s theatre director. Doesn’t care too much about his students – his show must go on and his reputation must stay intact. Wonders why nobody trusts him. |
| AJ Male. High school age. A dick. |
| TIM Male. High school age. A dick. |
| ZOEY Female. High school sophomore. Confrontational and bold. |
| HARPER Female. High school sophomore. A Swiftie. A little reserved. |
| MS. FRANKLIN Female. 30-40s. Audrey’s guidance counselor. |
