OLDER ALLIE: 70s. Female. Any ethnicity. Suffering from dementia in a nursing home. Sometimes the real world peeks through and she is lucid, but mostly it is all confusion.

OLDER NOAH: Male. 70s. Any ethnicity. Frail but has a crystal-clear memory of his life and his relationship with Allie. Seems curmudgeonly at times but has a heart of gold- especially in his dedication to his wife. A strong singer who has access to emotional vulnerability. Strong acting skills.
JOHNNY/FIN: Male, 20s/30s. Any ethnicity. JOHNNY: A physical therapist at Older Allie’s assisted living facility. FIN: Younger Noah’s best friend. Joyous, determined, rarely stops talking. A very strong singer with great comic timing. Will likely understudy the principal role of YOUNGER NOAH. Strong acting skills.
