Breakdown
Seeking:
Lily Harrison
Early to late 60s - An attractive woman. Slim, well-coiffed and well, if conservatively, dressed. While she looks several years younger than her actual age of 72, Lily has resigned herself to an “old life.” A widow of a preacher man, Lily may have had the ability to dance, but not the opportunity. She is a lonely woman taking her life one day at a time. She has more life left in her than she knows or than she will let herself believe. Ability to dance (or can take simple choreography for) swing, tango, foxtrot, Viennese Waltz, and cha-cha.
Michael Minetti Late 30s/40s
An attractive man of 45 who is trying to look 35. Although still far from paunchy, Michael wears dress slacks and a shirt clearly purchased a few pounds ago. He combs his hair to hide a receding hair line. A man who has been more hurt than helped in life, it is hard for Michael to trust in people. A dancer from NYC whose dreams never were realized, in career or love, Michael pushes people and partners away – it’s just safer that way. When he connects, it is for real, which is why it hurts him so much when those connections are lost or broken. Ability to dance (or can take simple choreography for) swing, tango, foxtrot, Viennese Waltz, and cha-cha.
