Synopsis:
When Kate tries to pledge a sorority, she learns that a mistake from years ago
is still haunting her. The sorority sisters are completely unforgiving,
deciding to have their fun with Kate by torturing her and the other girls to no
ends. Kate is determined not to let her win. She has her friends, Tyler and
Hailey by her side to help her stay strong. The deeper Kate gets in though the
more she realizes that these are not your typical hazing pranks. There is
something much darker that lies within these girls, setting up a brutal cycle
of jealousy, revenge, and a very twisted perception of reality.
The Hazed Character Breakdown
Kate: Female (18-25).
Independent, determined, and spunky. Kate has always been an outsider, but
isn’t going to let that get in the way of what she wants. She made a mistake
years ago that Melissa isn’t willing to let her forget. Kate refuses to be a
weak person though and is ready to take everything she throws her way. Role
requires nudity, limited or implied is negotiable.
Melissa: Female (18-25).
The head sorority sister. She loves being in charge and is used to everything
going her way, blaming her problems on others when they do arise. She’s unforgiving
and has a very dark nature, far beyond the bitchy façade that lies on the
outside. Role requires nudity, limited or implied is negotiable.
Courtney: Female (18-25).
One of Melissa’s best friend’s, runs the sorority house under her. She sticks by Melissa no matter how merciless
the hazing becomes.
Kelly: Female (18-25).
Melissa and Courtney’s other best friend. She is loyal to her sisters and is
determined to get vengeance on Kate for Melissa’s sake.
Jenna: Female
(18-25). The only reasonable sorority sister. She isn’t out to humiliate and
torment the pledges and isn’t interested in getting revenge on Kate. She goes
along with it to an extent, but she wants to just get through this year more
than anything. She’s far more concerned with school and her long distance
boyfriend who she hopes to be with when she goes to graduate school next year.
Brittany: Female (18-25).
As she gets deeper in to the sorority and sees the consequence of Melissa’s
jealousy her enthusiasm for the sorority quickly falls. She has a lot to deal
with, but refuses to let Melissa and the other sisters run all over her.
Limited clothing is required.
Lexy: Female (18-25).
Almost connected at the hip to Anna. Both of the girls put all of their energy
and hopes in to getting in to the sorority. They have more shallow reasons than
the other girls. No matter how twisted things get the price is never too high
to get what they want. Limited clothing is required.
Anna: Female
(18-25). Lexy’s best friend. It quickly becomes them against the other girls.
They intend to do whatever they can to get in to the sorority even when things
turn morbid. It’s shocking to them at first, but they put their better judgment
aside when their own desires blind them. Limited clothing is required.
Brad: Male (18-25).
Head of one of the school’s fraternity’s. He treats woman horribly, especially
his girlfriend, Melissa. He has been cheating on her for years and really has
no qualms or guilt about it. He comes from a wealthy family in the same social
circle as Melissa’s; part of the reason their parents want them to be together.

Chase: Male (18-25).
Sexist and objectifies woman. He’s Brad’s best friend and one of the brothers,
