Roles
Role | M/F | Age | Description | Peter | M | 30-60 | a good-natured psychotherapist in a poor neighborhood, having his own personal crisis of faith and purpose in life. | Madeline | F | 30-60 | partner to Peter, a confrontational and slightly OCD Freudian therapist, with a curvy figure that has brought her much unwanted attention in life. | Valentine | M | 30-60 | a manic, crude, smart, often aggressive, but likable professional stand-up comic whose existential crisis has pushed him into a career slump. | The Bishop | M | 60+ | a renegade cleric running a literally collapsing "cathedral," with an apocalyptic and sometimes unwittingly comical way of speaking. | Celia | F | 35-60 | an early-bloomer without guidance, now a blunt-spoken realist whose neither happy-nor-sad life followed its course because of a single misunderstanding. |
