The Translator is a heartfelt *comedy* about communication (or lack thereof) in relationships. Themes include navigating shared living spaces, chores, love languages, addiction, generational trauma, and more.
There are 10 roles available:
- T (any identity welcome)- A non-traditional off-brand couples therapist of sorts who strives to help facilitate communication between parties to ensure nothing is left unsaid between them. They take on the energy of the person they’re translating for
- JOE (he/him)- A unemployed hopelessly insecure romantic attempting to navigate his feelings and tendency to misinterpret and overthink
- MARTY(he/him)- Joe's husband who works hard to support the two of them financially and operates on logic vs. emotion, which can cause friction in their relationship
- BIANCA (she/her)- A person struggling to communicate about chores, in laws, and the stress of coexisting with her partner…and his parents
- CHRIS(he/him)- Bianca’s other half who’d prefer to avoid any and all discussions of feelings or issues and tends to take an all or nothing approach to such situations
- ROGER(he/him)- An older man unable to communicate with his wife about anything other than home projects or what’s for breakfast, lunch, or dinner despite needing to address heavier topics
- JEAN (she/her)- Roger's high school sweetheart who struggles to have deeper conversations and lives in the overly positive/ active avoidance frame of mind
- MICHAELA (she/her)- Is trying to pick up the pieces of her relationship after her husband’s infidelity, public scandal, and imprisonment.
- SEAN(he/him)- Michaela’s husband who was imprisoned for money laundering and is about to be released from his sentence
- KAT (she/her)- A widower looking for spiritual companionship, although she mostly converses with herself about surface level things
