SIGNIFICANT OTHER is presented by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc., a Concord Theatricals Company.

Jordan Berman is on the hunt for Mr. Right. The only wrinkle is each of his trio of close girlfriends is beating him to the altar! As his inner circle warps beyond expectation, Jordan must learn to navigate his newfound isolation while showing up as the companion his friends need.

The Character Breakdown is:

Jordan Berman (male presenting, late 20’s): Jordan is a gay, chronically single, Jewish man looking for love. New Yorker. He’s a romantic to his core with a well-developed sense of irony. Neurotic, keenly perceptive and hopelessly sensitive, he has a penchant for scrutinizing every romantic encounter with a fine-tooth comb. Actor must have ease and facility with language, strong comic skills, and access to truthful emotional life.
Laura (female presenting, late 20’s): Jordan’s best friend for life. She’s an emotional anchor to all, a constant comfort and nurturing presence within the friend group. Ambitious, intelligent, funny, and nursing a quiet loneliness akin to Jordan’s.
Vanessa (female presenting, late 20’s): Black American. Vanessa is a stylish, intelligent New Yorker with a finely-honed dry sense of humor. Meeting Roger transforms her, and she gives herself over to a newfound optimism.
Kiki (female presenting, late 20’s): Jewish. Kiki is a brashly hilarious, speaks-her-mind, stylish, life-of-the-party kind-of-woman. In all moments, you can count on her to be 150% herself.
Helene Berman (female presenting, 70s-80s): Jewish. Jordan’s grandmother. Lives on Long Island. A force of nature even as her memory recedes. Loves Jordan fiercely. Her wisdom and wit quell Jordan’s insecurities in the way only a grandmother can.
Will/Conrad/Tony (male presenting, late 20’s): Will - Jordan's very attractive co-worker. Can seem a bit aloof but then can sparkle with unexpected warmth.; Conrad - Kiki's significant other. A bit of an oaf, a bit dull, lacks a real sense of humor, is crazy about Kiki.; Tony - Laura's significant other. Projects instant warmth. A really good guy.; Actor must have strong comic chops and great flexibility as a character actor.
Zach/Evan/Roger (male presenting, late 20’s): Zach - Jordan's date. Warm, smart, interested in Jordan but conflicted emotionally because he's not over his ex.; Evan - Jordan's fabulous and dramatic co-worker. Always at the scene of the crime.; Roger - Vanessa's significant other. A stand-up guy. Adores Vanessa.; Actor must have strong comic chops and great flexibility as a character actor.
