(Thu 7:30pm, Fri & Sat 8pm, Sun 3pm)

(Sat – February 27th  3 PM)



*The following roles are available:*


*Richard “Ricky” Roma*:  Male - The most successful salesman in the office.
Although Roma seems to think of himself as a latter-day cowboy and regards
his ability to make a sale as a sign of his virility, he admits only to
himself that it is all luck. He is ruthless, dishonest and immoral, but
succeeds because he has a talent for figuring out a client's weaknesses and
crafting a pitch that will exploit those weaknesses. He is a smooth talker
and often speaks in grand, poetic soliloquies.


*Shelly “The Machine” Levene*:  Male - An older, once-successful salesman,
who has fallen on hard times and has not closed a big deal in a long time.


*James Lingk*:  Male - A timid, middle-aged man who becomes Roma's latest
client. Lingk is easily manipulated and finds Roma highly charismatic. Upon
consulting his wife, he becomes desperate to regain the money that Roma has
closed on him.


*John Willimason*:   Male - The stoic office manager and main antagonist.
The salesmen despise Williamson and look down on him, but need him
desperately because he's the one who hands out the sales leads. He finds
himself especially despised by Levene for the unpromising leads he gives
out on a regular basis.


*George Aaronow*:  Male - An aging salesman with low self-esteem who lacks
confidence and hope, but not without conscience.


*Dave Moss*:  Male - A big-mouthed salesman with big dreams and schemes.
Moss resents Williamson and the agency owners for putting such pressure on
him and plans to strike back at them by stealing all their best sales leads
and selling them to a competitor.


*Baylen*:  Male - A police detective.
