[MILLIE DAVIS] CAST (Female, 30s-40s, African American) Quick witted and dressed to the nines. She has a wry and funny take on the stereotypical roles she's had to play thus far in her career and show business in general.

[SHELDON FORRESTER] CAST (Male, African American, 60s) Wise, elderly and non confrontational. Willing to compromise because he needs the work.
