SKYH ALVESTER BLACK as "AMP 'ADDICTION' ANTHONY", a dancer with a hidden past who has found difficulty getting hired after being released from prison, so he goes to work as a bouncer/doorman in Madam's club, Eden.

KEITH 'FATAL ATTRACTION' SWIFT as "Babyface", is the oldest dancer of the group, though he doesn't look it. He's questioning the number of days he has left at the club and his many client entanglements cause him plenty of drama.
DION ROME as "El Fuego", one of the dancers at Madam's Club Eden who is a bit flirtatious with Madam. He loves who he loves and is quite the techy.
JEREMY 'MASTERPIECE' WILLIAMS as "Midnight" a confident and tough male stripper who sparks a different vibe in Madam than the other strippers. She enjoys him though it's hard to say how personal their relationship is.
CHRISTIAN KEYES as "The Concierge" is a calmly intense hitman, and member of the Damascus family, hired to blackmail Madam.
