DAVID BROWN - 50’s, baritone. New York producer of substantial power and respect who nonetheless maintains a professorial and pragmatic personal approach to his colleagues.

VERNA FIELDS - Mid 40’s, alto. Verna is creative, resourceful and in her way, nurturing. She is fiercely loyal and quick witted.

LORRAINE GARY - Late 30’s to early 40’s, alto belt. Down to-earth, charming, and warm actor. She has a terrific sense of humor - including about the power and privilege she has in the industry.

CARL GOTTLIEB - Mid to late 30’s, character baritone. Warm, diligent, and quick-witted writer and actor.

ROY SCHEIDER - Early 40’s, high baritone. A serious actor, he remains a strong team player and holds his temper for as long as possible.
