I Wanna Fuck like Romeo and Juliet
CUPID – God of Love. Appears as a Latinx woman in her 20’s – 30’s. Puts on a bitter, hard exterior. Incredibly heartbroken and tired. Fierce and Ferocious.
VALENTINE- Patron Saint of Love. Appears as any ethnicity, slightly younger than Cupid. Joyous, a rascal- more of a trickster than a saint. Believer in Love, completely and indefinitely.
BENNY RANDLE- mid 20’s Black Queer Man. Avoids the difficult questions by putting on a façade of ridiculousness and fabulousness. Lover to Alejandro. Mortal.
ALEJANDRO DIAZ- Mid 30’s Latinx Queer Man. Runs from anything that can hurt him. Sedate and steady like water, and just as stubborn. Lover to Benny. Mortal.
BETTI- A woman of color (any ethnicity but white). A child of immigrants and a dental hygienist. In her 30’s. Incredibly sad, incredibly eager. Looking for something new in her life. Mortal, with untapped potential for the Divine.
