CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS:

  Leo Clark / Maxine - (30s or older) An actor possessing real talent, and a clever, quick-on-his-feet thinker. 

 Jack Gable/ Stephanie - (30s or older) An actor of some talent as well. A reluctant partner in crime with Leo ... more sincere and not so clever or conniving as Leo. 

 Meg Snider - (20s to early 30s) A bright, vivacious young woman who loves the theatre and secretly dreams to experience far more of the world than York can possibly offer. 

 Duncan Wooley - (40s or older) A local minister, substantially older than Meg. A good man at heart, set in his ways and anxious to control Meg's inheritance money. 

 Audrey - (20s or early 30s) A sexy, attractive young woman, brighter than she appears to be at times. Ability to roller skate is a plus but not required. 

 Doc Meyers - (40s or older) Florence's doctor and family friend and father of Butch. Doc is basically a genuine guy who married for love but encourages his son to marry into money. 

 Butch Meyers - (20s to early 30s) Doc's handsome son who, notwithstanding his dad's advice, is in love with Audrey. He is honest and sincere although a bit slow-witted at times. 

Florence Snider - (60s or older) A kind but crusty old lady with terrible eyesight but a sharp mind and tongue.
