	SYNOPSIS: 

	On his 50th birthday, Martin, a world-famous architect prepares for a
recorded interview by an old friend in the TV business; but in the
course of the conversation a secret emerges that threatens to turn
celebration to tragedy. Edward Albee's black comedy offers a
fascinating look at the limits liberal society can be pushed to, and
asks the audience to question their beliefs, to examine their own
bigoted views and reconsider their judgement of matters that may or
may not be considered socially taboo. 

	AVAILABLE ROLES: 

	MARTIN (50) : A prize winning architect at the height of his career,
happily married to his loving wife Stevie and father to an openly gay
son. Martin is intelligent, witty, and sincere and having an affair
with a goat. 

	ROSS (50) : A successful television producer, and long standing
friend of the family, to whom Martin reveals his infidelity. Ross is
down to earth and practical. 

	STEVIE (45-50) : Martin’s loving wife who, until Sylvia, had been
his one and only love until the seemingly total collapse of their
lives when the true origin of that mysterious bad odor is revealed in
the form of a letter. 

	BILLY (17) : Gay son of Martin and Stevie who has only recently come
out. Billy is bright and mature and conflicted by his father’s
double standards. 

	Schenectady Civic Players promotes inclusive casting, and encourages
individuals, regardless of gender, gender identity, race, ethnicity,
or disability, to participate in the audition process.
