chose polar opposite paths. Catherine build a career as a rockstar
academic, while Gwen build a home with her husband and children.
Decades later, unfulfilled in opposite ways, each woman covets the
other’s life, commencing a dangerous game of musical chairs. With
searing insight and trademark wit, this comedy in an unflinching look
at gender politics in the wake of 20th-century feminist ideals.<br><br><font size="4"><u>Available
Roles</u></font><br><br><u>Catherine Croll:</u> (40s) successful and
respected academic teaching Women’s Studies in a New York City
university, high-powered, assertive, emotionally fragile at times, at
a crossroads in her life, which makes her somewhat desperate.<br><br><u>Gwen
Harper: </u>(40s) Catherine’s friend and former room-mate from
graduate school, has two children, one of whom she dotes on,
unfulfilled in her marriage, frustrated with her husband, recently
sober, her eccentricities belie her desperation.<br><br><u>Don Harper:</u>
(40s) Catherine’s former beau and Gwen’s husband, stuck in his career
as a Dean at a small New England liberal arts college, doesn’t feel he
deserves or is capable of more, lacks the motivation to take action,
he’s sexy, smart, charming and passive.<br><br><u>Alice Croll: </u>(60s)
Catherine’s mother, who recently had a heart attack but is probably
very healthy, determined, pragmatic, her sense of humor keeps her
afloat, adores her daughter, has seen it all and, although often
astonished but what she sees, enjoys the view.<br><br><u>Avery: </u>(S20s)
college student, very smart, sassy, tells it like it is, a truly
“liberated” young</b> <b>woman, though surprisingly naive
in some respects, often the voice of reason and has the clearest
insight amidst the three mature adults going through their mid-life
crises.<br><br>(MORE INFO WWW.CIVICPLAYERS.ORG)</b>
