Nick – retired restauranteur
Nora – Nick’s wife, concerned for older sister
Nikki – daughter of Nick & Nora, social worker
Danny – caregiver for father
Ralph – older caregiver for spouse
Mary Martha – Ralph’s wife, clueless and sweet
Father O’Brien – Ralph & Mary Martha’s Catholic priest
Jane – retiree whose mother lives with her
Anna – Jane’s online therapist
Ken – retiree whose spouse is in memory care

All auditions are conducted as cold readings from the script.
