Ash - 20s/30s (F): A new arrival from the big smoke, she is zesty, creative, and charming but a little naïve.
Walter - 60s/70s (M): The president of the company, keen to preserve the old ways of operating and the privileges he has enjoyed as an older white male. He is blunt and determined.
Dawn - 70s (F): A quirky older woman with an unintended ability to be funny, looking to step outside her customary roles of committee secretary and other silent support roles.
