THE HISPANIC/LATINO/LATINA/LATINE VOTE
By: Bernardo Cubría
Paola Aguilar (Late 30s Mexican) A Doctor of Latinx Studies who teaches at [a local college in the state you are putting on this play]. She wants to be a mom, but life hasn’t made that available yet. Hyper intelligent and empathetic to a fault. Has regrets and the boundaries to match.
Nicola Ramirez (30s, White with a Cuban father) A not so closet nerd. She is - upon further investigation - way more neurotic than you could ever imagine. Has yet to come out as Latina. According to her Instagram she’s doing just fine.
Bernard Robinson (30s, Black) grew up with money in Texas. Went to SMU. Has far too often been someone’s “black friend.” He is obsessed with early Garth Brooks. Wants to be president one day.
Rebecca Feldman (late 20s, Jew-“ish”) grew up in New York City. Speaks Spanish fluently and can’t wait to tell you how she “estudiar en Venezuela.” Got one question wrong on her SAT and she knows which one. Fancies herself a human right’s activist AND a centrist. She is so proud to call herself an “ally.”
Kaj Lutken (30s, White) the kind of person who didn’t get that Wolf of Wall Street was a satire. Is hyper concerned with cancel culture and is currently working on a Op-Ed about the whole thing. He is the epitome of ambition and trust me he sleeps waaaaay less than you do.
Hispanic/Latino/Latina/Latinx/Latine Track – (any age, any gender) Will double various people throughout the play. They and we are not a monolith. And they get to have fun in acting out various examples of a diaspora. NOTE: Clowning, physical comedy, and improv experience preferred.
