Breakdown

SHE: 40-55. A leading lady. Vulnerable, open, commanding on stage, but eccentric, with a sense of irony. Able to be in an old-fashioned stylized drama or act with effortless naturalness.

HE: 40-55. A leading man. Dashing, sexy, naughty, with a sense of irony, able to be in an old-fashioned stylized drama or act with effortless naturalness. A bit of a mess emotionally. The kind of man whom a mother would think Uh-Oh about if presented with dating her daughter.

DIRECTOR: Age could range from 30s-70s. A goofy intellectual. Takes himself seriously. But is often ridiculous.

KEVIN: 20s- 30s. Very eager, but a little awkward, a gay man who, in the play within the play, is a terrible actor, and plays many parts. A natural comedian.

HUSBAND: 40s- 50s. A man who is able to be in a stylized Noel Coward play, or can break your heart with his emotional simplicity and light touch. A man who you could believe would be a stable pillar in a marriage. Who should be outwardly less of a romantic type, but capable of great love, and great selfless love.

ANGELA: 18 + to play teen. A saucy teenager who could also be funny as a maid in a 1930s comedy. Able to play authentic rage, but with the intrinsic underlying hopefulness and optimism of a teenager.

MILLICENT/LAURIE: Late 20s- 30s. In the first act, plays a 1930s siren socialite; in act 2 plays a cheerful no-nonsense kindergarten teacher from the midwest who has moved to New York and lives with a man who is trouble (HE.)
