THE ACTORS
SYNOPSIS: A new play written by Ronnie Larsen is one man's journey to end his loneliness and loss of losing his parents.

Clarence is an out-of-work actor who has been hired as a replacement father for Ronnie. His ethics are put to the test as he finds the easiest well paying gig of his life and he takes full advantage.
Real Jay: A white male-identifying between the ages of 45 and 55. Jay is the real-life brother of Ronnie and has his world seemingly put together. Jay is physically fit, straight, married and a father. He comes back into the picture because of his brother, Ronnie's eccentric ways of making a family is unhealthy and unnecessary.
