The New York Times says it's a "whip-smart satire of fear and loathing in a
beleaguered industry under siege," and shows "the cannibal culture cycles

CASTING:
KENDRA
Asian-American Female, 20s: An assistant. Fabulous, trendy, you may mistake
her for flighty but she’s potentially the sharpest person in the room. Loud
and opinionated. Must have comic chops. Graduated Berkeley and Harvard.
MILES:
African-American Male, 20s. The intern. Quiet, keeps to himself, doesn’t
make much of an impression. He works hard, but that could be ambition or
just because he has nowhere else to go. Goes to Harvard, got this
internship through an acclaimed professor.
LORIN:
Any Race Male, late 30s: Recently promoted head fact checker. “A sad sad
sad sad guy.” He’s been at the magazine for way too long and resents his
own success in the fact checking department.
DEAN:
Caucasian Male, late 20s: An assistant. Aggressive, driven, desperately
trying to break out of his position and potentially killing himself in the
process. He is gay.
GLORIA
Any Race Female, late 30s: A copy editor. She’s worked at the magazine too
long and is now worn out in a way that’s given her a manic, wired, testy
energy.
ANI
Caucasian Female, early 20s: An assistant. Exacting, a “pretty nerd”—the
kind of girl who wears her mother’s dresses. She did a Fulbright and speaks
too many languages for her own good. She does a lot, but she doesn’t really
know what she wants to do.

MOST OF THE CAST PLAYS MULTIPLE ROLES
No prepared monologue necessary. Auditions will consist of readings from
the script
