Seeking:

Chad Walker

19. Super clean-cut, preppy, athletic, and handsome. He carries himself with the confidence of the privileged, popular, and successful. He is very congenial and easy with the men from the wrong side of the tracks and seems charming and ingratiating. He knows he is a winner by birth and education.

The following roles have been CAST. Actors auditioning will be considered for possible replacements if needed.

Frank

CAST. 36. He is sort of the alpha male in this group of drifted-apart lifelong friends. He has trained himself, as a single father, to be calm and peace-making but his true nature is to be hot-headed, impulsive, violent, and highly aggressive. These traits emerge later in the play. He is a commanding personality, persuasive and decisive.

Packie

CAST. 36. It is important that he be a small man. He has a hair-trigger temper, mercurial, bristling with defensiveness, very feisty and aggressive. Quick in energy and full of bluster in his conversation. Irish and proud of it, with a gift of gab.

Swaino

CAST. 36. Smoothly sarcastic, dry, master of the put-down. He is a grease monkey, but tries to re-make himself outside of the garage. Very vain and fastidious about his appearance, Cocky and seemingly very self-confident, especially in his relationship to the ladies. He carries himself with what he perceives as classy and stylish. A lounge Lothario.
