Project Synopsis
an actress to play the role of a mommy... of 27 year old man (Tyler) that still lives at home with his mom in Vancouver (a tale as old as time) but no its not because he can't grow up (it is), but because the rent being so high. Many of you are probably know these guys, you've probably dated at least a couple, or are talking to them right now on a dating app. Some of you may even have your very own Man son living in your basement right this moment. Which ever the situation is, I'm sure you'd be perfect for this role. I am a Character playing the role of CEO of Tapeworm corp, a company that is trying to come up with the future of affordable housing. Through a new idea, rather than building bigger and bigger expensive buildings we are going smaller, by introducing Micro Housing. In this skit we would be doing a trial run testimonial where you and your "son" try out the Micro House for a month. by putting in in the driveway of your home. We film a short comedic Docu style vid saying how impactful it was. And how now your son is going to actually move out, he actually wants to move it to his "homie Derek's" house so he can work on beats and play fortnight with the squad all the time. You are so proud of him. This whole time there is a sub text that Tony Claymore and your character are actually developing a relationship, as Tony has been, coming by the house a lot to check in and to "research" the process. In this time Tony Claymore starts to act as your Childs father almost. he's throwing the football with him, you are come out to the yard to say dinners ready. a whole fucked up family dynamic is developing.Tyler is kinda weirded out by the whole thing, he doesn't hate Tony per say but he's very uncomfortable by the whole experience, and this is probably the real reason he is moving to his homie Derek's house.

Description
Pretty classic mid west mom archetype. She is maybe a little too coddling of her son, protective, thinks hes the best just wish he had more drive, she really wants him to grow up but would never tell him that and also won't let him (as she still does his laundry and make dinner for him most nights.. She has been divorced with his father for like 25 years and hasn't had a substantial relationship since. She is ready to have her 3/4 life crisis glow up, but feel like first Tyler needs to move out.
