BREAKDOWN
The story takes place in the mid-1940s in southern United States. The characters are a group of tramps living rough, riding the rails. Telling stories for entertainment, they share the tale of Sheriff Quimby and his wife. The tramps take on various characters as they act out the story. There will be a cast of 8, likely 4 women and 4 men. We will be looking for some to play instruments (guitar, violin, ukulele, or mandolin plus hand percussion). Most actors will play multiple characters. Those listed below are the main characters they would play. Four AEA actors have already been cast, so we are looking for four additional cast members.
Willa - Unmannered young woman, orphaned at a young age
Vesta - Sheriff's wife, a calculating social climber
Quimby - Sheriff, married to Vesta
George - Willa's brother
Jack - Tramp/Narrator
