About the Job
Mid 20s. Sharp, funny, a little frayed at the edges. Eliza has the restless energy of someone who left quickly and is now realizing she didn’t tie up as many loose ends as she thought. She isn’t dramatic for attention, she’s dramatic because she feels everything at once and tries to hide it with dry humor and deflection. Beneath her confidence is a woman still sorting out who she is after the breakup. Her return to the apartment is impulsive but sincere, and the encounter with Jonah forces her to confront truths she’s been avoiding. She carries both vulnerability and bite, and the audience should feel that she’s on the verge of change, even if she doesn’t know what comes next.
