________________________________
NOOMEE(actor) - male, 40-50’s. Senior Accountant. Noomee is deeply loved by those closest to him. He is a joyous ball of sunshine to his office best friends, Maureen and Sherman. Disowned by his parents for being gay, he came to North America to live with his Aunties, be accepted and in his middle age find himself. He is conservatively gay but has moments of being boisterously colourfully “out.”
_______________________________
MAUREEN(actor) - female, 40’s, Accountant. Jilted after a long-term relationship she carries shame from her family's disappointment. She has found it easier to stay in the background even though Vance, the office hottie, continually tries to flirt his way into her heart. Disgusted with men like Vance, Maureen has made fast office “friends” with Noomee and Sherman.
