SYDNEY BRUHL (Lead, male, age 50-59) – A once acclaimed author fallen victim to a recent creative drought. He’s usually the smartest and most charming one in the room and wants to make sure everyone else in the room knows it. Sidney is extremely ambitious and will do almost anything to get what he wants, no matter who might be in his way.

MYRA BRUHL (Lead, female, age 40-60)– Sidney’s loving and supportive wife. She is a kind and calming presence during some of Sidney’s stormier moods. Her soft exterior will give way to a much firmer attitude when she needs to get Sidney off of some of his more unhealthy notions.

CLIFFORD ANDERSON (Lead, male, age 18-30) – An attractive and talented young writer with a bright future ahead of him. He’s usually the smartest and most charming one in the room but is fine with biding his time to let people find that out. He is extremely clever and can easily slip-on fronts of innocence and naivete and belies some of his darker ambitions.

HELGA TEN DORP (Supporting, female, age 30+) – Celebrity Psychic who loves every minute of her fame. She is free spirited, and not easily intimidated.

PORTER MILGRIM (Supporting, male, age 30+) – Sidney’s friend and attorney. Very sharp and observant of his surroundings. Isn’t sure he trusts Clifford.
