Nate:
Age: Early/Mid 20s
Nate starts as a passive person living in the city and supported by his suburban parents back in their suburban home, only dedicated to the church. He fends off any and all temptation that gets in the way of playing Jesus Christ in his church’s stations of the cross reenactment. Trouble with his strict capitalistic pastor and advice from his best friend, Broth, causes him to look inward, having a queer resurrection of his own.

Pastor Tom
Age: 50/60’s
Prays to the god that is the American dollar. Pastor Tom sniffs out any weakness in his disciples, aggressively imposing his will with brochures and benefits tied to his Church enterprise. An old-school rugged approach like a mentally abusive religious football coach.

Seb
Age: Early/Mid 20s
Seb might not be from this city, but he is from a city. He is confident, and driven by his goal and dream of becoming an actor. Loves theater and could talk about it for days. At the bar, he takes initiative and is a comforting figure for Nate to begin to open up.
