About the Job
Jonathan’s mother. Once charismatic and magnetic, Samantha struggled with addiction throughout Jonathan’s childhood. She genuinely believes she tried to be a good mother, even if she never fully understood the damage her addiction caused. She carries warmth, regret, and a quiet self-justification that lives just beneath the surface. This role requires emotional nuance and restraint. Samantha is not a villain and not a saint, she exists in the complicated space between love and failure. Samantha should feel like someone who once had a magnetic presence but has been worn down by life. SELF TAPE REQUIRED
