Breakdown

Seeking the following 2 roles:

MICHAEL
35-40. An erstwhile actor and adoptee searching for his birth-mother. Solipsistic, melancholic, manic, sex, death and mother-obsessed. Like so many thwarted young actors, he thinks he is born to play Hamlet.

ANNA
55-60. An erstwhile actress, a once-upon-a-time ingénue. She leads a double-life: corporate flunky by day, barfly by night. Tough, salty, but with an innocence as well, a lost-ness. Though she has not acted in 30 years, she has enormous natural talent and charisma.
