BREAKDOWN
DADA WOOF PAPA HOT by Peter Parnell
Directed by AFT Artistic Associate Keira Fromm
Rehearsal/Performance Dates: 12/10/18-2/16/18
ALAN Late 40's/Early-50s. Gay. A journalist whose anxieties about being a father to his 3 year old daughter reflect his own ambivalence and insecurities. Witty, self-deprecating, just barely in touch with his own repressed anger.
ROB 40s. Alan’s husband. A psychiatrist in private practice who is far more comfortable with being a father. A great listener, who can be judgmental but also warmly accepting of others’ neuroses, especially Alan’s.
SCOTT 30s. A gay dad whose son is the same age as Alan and Rob’s daughter. Scott works in private equity, is a bit buttoned-down, keeps his emotions in tight check.
JASON 30s. Scott’s husband. An abstract painter who is more relaxed than Scott, has an easy seductive charm, and a slight air of mystery about him. Attractive, sexy.
