BREAKDOWN
Seeking:
All roles will be understudied.
Esther – mid-20s-early 30s; she feels young, impressionable, eager and yet no-nonsense too; she is an Orthodox Jew.
Schmuli – 30s; formal, not totally comfortable in his skin, also Orthodox; has the capacity for deep, surprising emotion; he is a deeply gentle person.
Abe – mid 30s- early 40s; an intellectual who knows he’s an intellectual, enjoys seducing with language, a bit pretentious but charming and not without humor and self-awareness/self-deprecation; he is Caucasian, Jewish.
Sophie – mid 30s- early 40s; Abe’s wife, dry and intelligent and world-weary but still holds her head up high; she is half Caucasian/Jewish and half Black.
Julia Cheever – mid 30s - early 40s, any ethnicity; a movie star with an abundance of outward charm and confidence and an easy laugh; she is poised and polished, but vulnerability creeps in on occasion.
