BREAKDOWN
In this world premiere, Tony Award-winning playwright Ken Ludwig (Lend Me a Tenor) tells the joyous, heart-warming story of his parents’ courtship as told through letter writing during World War II and the results are anything but expected.
This is a two-character play, with long passages of text. Both actors must have a strong facility with language and style.
SEEKING:
[JACK]
Late 20’s – mid 30’s. A handsome young doctor in the Army. Jack has a reserved personality, but a keen sense of humor and warmth that Louise brings out of him. He is charismatic, kind and intelligent. Upstanding and honest.
[LOUISE]
Mid 20’s - mid 30’s. A pretty, young aspiring NY Broadway actress. Outgoing, vivacious and stylish. Speaks her mind, with intelligence and humor. Full of hope. Should have strong comedy chops.
