Role # 1 The Whore
Seeking 1 talent(s) for this role

The Whore:
Man, late 20s. Manager of the department store by day; top male escort in town by night. Rich and complex guy. Resigned to spending the rest of his life alone, but yearns for the mythic more. Lanky, somewhat awkward, but still sexy as hell. When working at the department store, he is snide and domineering, posh and prickish. But in his ?sexy? life, he is vulnerable, sweet, provides a genuine connection. The duality of his life is killing him; he's on the verge of a breakdown. On the day of the biggest sale of the year, he stumbles upon a customer that rocks his world and makes him believe in love again. But who could ever love someone so burdened by the weight of his own afflictions? The Whore is neurotic, almost manic, and moves about the three stories of the store like a Slinky?. He's funny. He's heartbreaking. He's sweet. He's awful ... and very talented.

Role # 2 The Pimp
Seeking 1 talent(s) for this role

The Pimp:
Latina, late 20s/early 30s. Toughest b--ch in town, runs the biggest ?service? in the country, but uses the department store as her cover. Delicious, dangerous diva. Don't let the perky outfits & innocent smile fool you -- she'll cut you. Comes from money, but left home when her mother Mrs. Robinsoned the love of her life, Edward. She then vowed never to be hurt again ... she's cold. Demanding. And making millions. Everyone is her puppet. Has big hair, built like a goddess, knows how to work it. Manages the make-up counter and plays the part of perfect employee, but every employee in the store is one of her tricks -- except The Whore, who is stealing business from her left & right. She's on a mission to catch ?whomever? it is who's stealing her business, because her numbers are down and Momma can't buy her island in Fiji with a leech sucking off her profits. She's so efficient she'll resolve that mess before her Botox? appointment.

Role # 3 The Agent
Seeking 1 talent(s) for this role

The Agent:
Woman, mature late 20s/early 30s. Ex-porn-star-turned power-agent. Reps the top talent in the business, and hates them all. Snarky, fun, doesn't take herself that seriously. How can you, when you make your living booking work for overpaid illiterates? She slices into you with fierce one-liners. Though small, she has a commanding presence. In her power-suits and stilettos, she will own you. The ghosts of her days in porn have come back to haunt her, and she realizes that she needs more than babysitting pretty idiots. Uses humor to mask her pain; it isn't until today that she realizes what the next era of her life encompasses.

Role # 4 The Paparazzi
Seeking 1 talent(s) for this role

The Paparazzi:
Man, 25-30. Bright blue or green eyes, blond (actor should be willing to dye hair blond). The Paparazzi lords over Hollywood with a gracious hand, having pictures that capture the rich & powerful doing some of the most obscene things. These pictures are his power. They fear him. They just don't know how crazy he is. His own mother was an Academy Award?-winning legend who overdosed in his arms, and it made him somewhat batsh*t crazy. So he's somewhat manic. Kinda mad-hatter-like. And he hides in the walls, in light fixtures, in plants. Every time the character appears, he's in a new sight-gag costume that gets built into the set. Physical humor is needed, but a great depth is also required to capture the character's highs & lows.

Role # 5 The D-Lister
Seeking 1 talent(s) for this role

The D-Lister:
Woman, late 20s/early 30s. Having spent her entire career as a working actress of integrity & esteem, she snaps and decides that she doesn't want to create great art ... SHE WANTS THE FAME. Sells her soul to try to become a bigger star, but her biggest gig is a role on a top-20 police procedural. So she's going rogue, getting ghetto and will do whatever it takes to become a tabloid fixture. Even if it means getting shaaaaady. The most physical & intense role in the show. Gorgeous, but crazy. Her plan is to come to the store, steal some stuff, get arrested and stage a Winona-like reinvention as a notorious Hollywood bad girl. When her first criminal attempt fails, she spends the rest of the day stalking opportunities to steal press. She was once a girl w/principals, and she's not betraying them ? they betrayed her. Now? She is shamelessly seeking glory and she will get it, by any means necessary.

Role # 6 The Superstar
Seeking 1 talent(s) for this role

The Superstar:
Man, late 20s/early 30s. Biggest star in town. His neuroses seems to be jailing him. Hates his life, lonely, broken. Tall, a stunning Adonis. But beyond his beautiful facade, he's a gentle giant of a doofus. Loud, fun, sweet ... and sometimes likes to wear ladies? panties. Huge action star w/a small secret. Or big secret, depending on how you look at it. Raised in Hawaii, a surfing God; has a smooth beach vibe, but Hollywood has turned him into a stern and focused workhorse. Has to live the lie in order to live the dream, but his domineering agent pimp-slaps him into submission to get him to do what she wants. Then he meets someone in the store who changes everything about who he wants to be, how he wants to live. He is camp, but sweet. Completely aloof. Resoundingly charming. Ultimately badass.
