BREAKDOWN
KEN CARPENTER
(Role CAST) Age 57
NANCY CARPENTER
Late 50’s. Conservative Christian Nebraskan. Put together and contemporary. Warm, smart, funny, and attractive. Though stricken by Ken’s crisis of faith, Nancy is pragmatic.
REVEREND TODD
Mid 40’s. Kind, thoughtful, and well-meaning. Bland.
CAMMIE CARPENTER
80’s. Very compromised, physically and mentally. Dementia has reduced her to a near childlike state.
ASHLEY KOHL
Mid 30’s. Conservative Christian Nebraskan. Close-minded. Former beauty queen. Loves her father but baffled by his crisis.
PAT MONDAY
Mid to late 40’s. Smart businesswoman. An awful divorce has left her depressed and alone, trying to prove to the world, and herself, that she is still sexy.
TAMYRA
Late 20’s. Black, Londoner. Smart, sensitive. Guarded. Purely a business relationship with Ken until his guilelessness wins her over and they begin a tentative friendship.
HARRY BROWN
Mid 30’s to early 40’s. Any ethnicity. Londoner. An Oxonian with working class affectations. An angry young man who isn’t as young as he used to be. Opinionated and temperamental.
BUD TODD
Late 70’s. Nebraskan. Charming, spirited, horny. Bud’s cantankerousness and teasing humor disguises the truth: he’s an opportunistic asshole.
