Casting Information:

Starring Roles:

Ada

Ada was excited to be a mother, but everything went wrong. Ada is now grieving the loss of her child, who died at birth.  She is faced with the inability to have children of her own.  She is depressed and slightly unstable.

Jim

Jim is Ada's husband.  He was also excited to be a dad.  Jim is frustrated, and feels isolated from Ada as she suffers from depression.  For now, he has to tough things out, and be 'solid' for his wife.

Neena

Neena is a college student in art school.  She and her boyfriend were not careful, and she got pregnant.  Scared, away from home, and financially unstable, she made the choice to have an abortion.  She is experiencing mixed feelings and confusion as she tries to get back to normal life.

Supporting:
Social Worker (woman)**

When the social worker meets Jim and Ada, her gut instantly tells her they are unstable, and not ready to adopt a child.  She must, however, perform her duties with discretion and compassion.

Psychologist (woman)

Ada sees a psychologist who suggests she take an anti-depressant.  Later, after weeks of listening to Ada's stories and thoughts, she offers observations.

Boyfriend

Neena's boyfriend feels genuinely sorry for the mess he helped make.  He is neither aloof, nor altogether attentive to Neena's needs in this current situation.

Clinician/OB-GYN (woman)**

The clinician/doctor that performed Neena's abortion meets with her in her office.  She has some practical advice, and some empathetic guidance for her.

Small Parts:

  • Doctor
  • Nurse 1**
  • Nurse 2
  • Jim's Boss at work
