About the Job
Unique, memorable look. Great hair. Real and relatable. Endearing/likeable/lovable. A memorable face. Able to give a nuanced performance. **A gift for slightly comedic timing is essential.** Film and TV background a plus. Ruby's roommate. She worked with Ruby, the hero, as teachers at an elementary school before Opal moved on to Jr. High, but their bond was so tight they decided to live together. Opal’s a character, always getting attention from her amazing hair styles and booming laugh. Looking for natural, grounded, and understated performances. The humor comes from commitment, not exaggeration. No one is “playing the joke”, they are fully present in their role, treating every action as completely normal and necessary. (They are getting a forgotten bus pass from an upstairs apartment window to the street level, where Ruby, the hero, is about to catch her bus)
