ALREADY CAST:
Jonathan Groff - FRANKLIN SHEPARD (Male, 25-40 years old) Talented and Handsome film songwriter who ends up having a very successful career as a film producer. One of those people who go from success to success without realizing the impact that success is having on the people around him.
Daniel Radcliffe - CHARLEY KRINGAS (Male, 25-40 years old) Smart and driven lyricist who is Frank’s long devoted friend. Frustrated with Frank, he begins to create his own projects and opportunities on Broadway. Charley sees the world (and their friendship) as it really is.
Lindsay Mendez - MARY FLYNN (Female, 25-40 years old) An attractive and idealistic writer who is Frank and Charlie’s best friend in the world. Secretly in love with Frank, she ultimately masks her feelings with quick wit, sardonic remarks and alcohol.
