BREAKDOWN

OH, MARY!

SEEKING:

[MARY TODD LINCOLN] – CAST - Cole Escola. a frustrated soul.

[ABRAHAM LINCOLN] Black, Latinx, Asian, Middle Eastern, North African, South Asian, White. Male Identified or Non-Binary, 30s - 50s. A vain and tortured man under a great deal of pressure. Obsessed with appearances and order, he also craves peace and quiet, even if he clings to it with a white knuckle grip.

[JOHN] Black, Latinx, Asian, Middle Eastern, North African, South Asian, White. Male-Identified or Non-Binary, 30s - 40s. A sensitive, self-conscious romantic and a man of many skills. Handsome. Most of the time he is quite shy and unsure of himself, but when it comes to going after the one he loves, something comes over him and he is able to shed his self=doubt and hold passionately to the object of his desire.

[LOUISE/BILL] Black, Latinx, Asian, Middle Eastern, North African, South Asian, White. Female Identified or Non-Binary, 30s-60s. LOUISE is the ideal politician’s wife and she knows it. She reveres power and status. She has the smug poise and charm of someone who knows they’re better than you, however she’s always got an eye out for opportunities to climb even higher up the social ladder. Doubles as BILL, street-wise, no nonsense bartender with a tough exterior but soft and sentimental at heart.

[SIMON] Black, Latinx, Asian, Middle Eastern, North African, South Asian, White. Male-Identified or Non-Binary, 30s - 50s. Plays piano well. Abraham’s right hand man. Dry. All business. He is the definition of patriotic loyalty. His militaristic stoicism is an intimidating facade hiding the fact that he ultimately is not very bright. A SKILLED PIANO PLAYER.

[FEMALE-IDENTIFIED UNDERSTUDY] – Black, Latinx, Asian, Middle Eastern, North African, South Asian, White. Female-Identified or Non-Binary, 30s-50s. Actor will understudy LOUISE/BILL and MARY TODD LINCOLN, a frustrated soul.

[MALE-IDENTIFIED UNDERSTUDY] – Black, Latinx, Asian, Middle Eastern, North African, South Asian, White. Male-Identified or Non-Binary, 30s-50s. Actor will understudy ABRAHAM LINCOLN, JOHN, and SIMON. Piano playing skills a plus, but not required.
