NOT CONSTANTINOPLE
World Premiere
A New Play by Arnie Reisman
Directed by MJ Bruder Munafo
May 11- June 20
(1st rehearsal May 11: opening June 2: closing June 20)
Seeking:

Paul (Paulie)
(60s-70s) is a gruff, agitated, shoot-from-the-lip kind of guy. He is a pessimist and sees that as being realistic. A bookmaker-bookkeeper, he made a helluva lot more money on the outside, back with the guys he’s agreed to rat out.

Gloria (Tina)
(60s) Paulie’s wife. (Replacement only)

Lee (Louie)
(60s) is a cold machine, a hit man who stays in training, physically fit with daily exercise routines, like squash. But he is reaching the end of his rope. He has fancied himself fairly indifferent, reserved, a man of few words, a listener.

Stacey (Stephanie)
(30s) is a sociopath, an optimist, a charmer whose blood runs colder than Lee’s. But her outward appearance is personable, socially viable and vital. She is the new breed of a hit man in the time of digital innovation and social networking.

Jack
(40s) is a US Marshal from a whole family of marshals. A veritable Dudley Do-Right, he never gave a thought to doing something else with his life.
