SEEKING:
[GLORIA SCHMIDT/MIRIAM MINTZ/ FEMALE ENSEMBLE 1] – Female (cis, trans, non-binary), 24- 40, any ethnicity. Gloria Schmidt, Miriam Mintz, and an ensemble track. Gloria Schmidt is an up-tight government servant with a fetish for ruining people’s lives with the IRS. She is very well spoken and measured until it comes time to bear the bad news, then she practically wills an orgasm out of her evil loins. Miriam Mintz LOVES showing off her money. She’s a hot-to-trot real estate mogul who buys out the Cathouse girls’ building and cruelly muscles them out by skyrocketing their rent. Miriam loves 3 things: Her benz, high style, and gentrifying neighborhoods. SINGS WELL AND HAS A STRONG COMEDIC PRESENCE.
[FEMALE ENSEMBLE 2] – Female (cis, trans, non-binary), 20-30’s, any ethnicity. Various roles. A STRONG DANCER AND HAS STRONG POP ROCK VOCALS.
[MALE ENSEMBLE 2] – Male (cis, trans, non-binary), 20’s-30’s, any ethnicity. Various roles. Appears in drag. HAS STRONG POP ROCK VOCALS AND IS A STRONG DANCER. DRAG EXPERIENCE A PLUS.
