All characters are at different stages of their 40s. All must possess impeccable comic timing and be capable of extreme fits of rage and emotion. All are well schooled on accepted social graces but all are incapable of continuing them for any period of time.

Michael:

A very successful domestic hardware wholesaler. The most blue collar of the group. Very pleased with the pretentions he’s created for himself, though he would be quick to deny it. Forceful yet witty. Able to cover his more humble beginnings with a well mannered exterior.

Veronica:

Very pretentious. Desperately works on creating the image of the perfect 2010 mother/housewife/artist. Too tightly wound to hold together and terribly in need of retribution. A sharp, driven, upper crust writer. Prides herself on her liberal values.

Alan:

Corporate attorney. Little interest in what has gone on with his son. His only goal is to win every argument true to his profession. His love for his job often gets in the way of his marriage and family obligations.

Annette:

The most outwardly emotional of the group. Very protective of her son. Quick to find the fault in others. A projectile vomiter. A sensitive yet fiercely protective peacemaker who works in wealth management.
