seeking:
Emmy: Female, 18-25, any ethnicity; Nora’s and Torvald’s daughter; an old soul and a romantic; wise and mature in some ways, but still 18.
_____________
DISGRACED
seeking:
Amir: Male, 35-45, Pakistani-American; a well-educated and well-dressed New York corporate lawyer at odds with his Muslim heritage, and in denial about the depth of his faith; American born of Pakistani descent and speaks perfect American English; like all the characters in the play, he is glib, urban, driven, and extremely intelligent; Emily is his wife; feels he is on the verge of a career breakthrough, but is insecure about his standing at the firm.
Emily: Female, 30-39, Amir's wife; attractive and warm, articulate and compassionate; strives to be even-handed and level-headed in both her personal and professional relationships; a truly talented painter on the cusp of significant success, her work focuses on Islamic themes; has worked hard to educate herself and broaden her personal and world views; on the verge of a major breakthrough in her career; finds herself and her marriage increasingly threatened by her husband's complicated relationship to his Islamic faith, and her own secrets.
Abe: Male, 18-26, Pakistani-American; as American as American gets; vibrant and endearing in his hoodie, skinny jeans, and high-tops; smart and engaging with an awakening sense of social and personal justice; Amir's nephew.
Isaac: Male, 35-45, a successful Jewish art curator married to Jory; a vibrant and seductive personality, he draws people in with his charmingly quick wit, easy manner and passion--passion about art, about politics, about his family, about his Jewish faith--you name it; Jory’s husband.
Jory: Female, 30-39, African-American, a lawyer in Amir's firm; married to Isaac; a strikingly beautiful, intelligent, commanding, and forthright woman; articulate and confident, and has wrestled her way to the top; not afraid to fight for what she wants and get her hands dirty if necessary.
