Wallflowers (web series)

The core group of characters are in their mid to late 30s and are from the last generation of people who did not come of age using the internet as a dating tool.

Jane Tavana (Jolly Abraham): The prodigal group member, now returned after being fired from her job as a high powered attorney and ending an affair with her married boss.

(Season One only) Leslie (Marcia DeBonis): Office manager at Hunter Casting and the real muscle behind the team.

Though Mark is a large presence in Season 2, he only appears as a hazy profile on a computer screen or is heard as a voice over the phone.

[citation needed] Troy (Charlie Williams): Aspiring actor, boyfriend of Todd, and the worst casting reader on the face of the earth.

(Season One) Nancy (Lisa Joyce): Martin's pregnant co-worker, with whom he strikes up a friendship after volunteering to accompany her Lamaze classes.

(Season 2) Wallflowers was created and written by director-producer Kieran Turner, a graduate of the Tisch School of the Arts.

The show was subsequently picked up for a fully funded 2nd season by online digital platform Stage17, which specialized in programming by the Broadway community (many of the cast of Wallflowers are working Broadway/theater actors).

Originally played by Tony nominee Chad Kimball, who was unable to continue with the series past Episode 3 of Season 1, the role was recast with actor Lucas Near-Verbrugghe.

To introduce the switch, the show filmed a short piece which was a parody of the Steven Carrington/Dynasty actor swap, with the cast of Wallflowers gathered in a hospital room, awaiting Bryce's head bandages to be removed.

The DVD special edition includes all episodes, minisodes and commentary by creator Kieran Turner and members of the Wallflowers cast.
