    I highly recommend this play - Ms. Black is a wonderful up and coming playwright with a unique voice and something to say. This play is moving, intriguing and a wonderful debut from a writer we'll be hearing a lot from.

ANGIE (16-18) Female-identifying or Non-binary- An angel on a mission to save the life of Will. Type A but with much more depth than one would assume based on first impressions alone.
DEVON (16-18) Male-identfifying, Female-identifying or Non-binary- A demon on a mission to condemn the soul of Will to hell. Charismatic, “devil-may-care” attitude but with an inexplicable element of danger.

**NOTE: Feel free to adapt the pronouns used in the script for either character to reflect the gender identity of the actor playing the role
