Breakdown

3 AEA contracts available to be cast among the available roles:

Eric Sheridan
Male, 30’s. A bookish, even-keeled guy who finds himself completely out of his element when called upon to express his feelings for a woman, lie to his boss, disguise himself as someone else, and stand up to an armed mobster - while not wearing any pants.

Billie Dwyer
Female, 20’s-early 30’s. A police office, Eric’s partner. Excitable and entirely unthreatening, she seemingly lacks every skill necessary for police work, but is as eager to succeed as she seems destined to fail.

Karen Brown
Female, early 30’s. An accountant who always takes pride in her accountant like professional demeanor - until this morning, when she finds herself filled with a sexual hunger and unable to keep things in control.

Mayor Meekly
Male, 50’s-60’s. An Innocent, with a capital i. An affable, gentle fellow. Not too quick on the pick up, but a sweet, sweet soul.

Agent Frank
Male, 20’s-40’s. Head of security at Town Hall and frankly the wrong man for the job. Though he presents the gruff exterior of a secret service agent (or film noir detective, even), he is frequently (and at moments of crisis, invariably) a man frightened by his own shadow.

Mary Meekly
Female, 50’s-60’s. The Mayor’s wife. Small in stature and unfailingly sweet, she seems, in every way, the perfect match for her husband. Except she’s a real killer.
