SEEKING:
SARAH (THE LOVER) / STELLA (THE COLLECTION): Female, 35-40. This is a true leading lady. Requires an actress who radiates sensuality from within, and yet able to play a traditional British housewife. Completely captivating. A young Helen Mirren type. Very much a woman. Both Sarah and Stella are deeply involved in power struggles with their husbands. Sarah: intellectually powerful and complex, and enjoys the games she and her husband play. Sexual and magnetic. Stella: catlike and strategic to get what she needs.
RICHARD (THE LOVER) / JAMES (THE COLLECTION): Male, 35-45. Very much a leading man. Tall and physically very attractive. Richard: extremely smart, strategic, and commanding. Possesses an erotic charge and a star quality that is completely captivating. Able to play the traditional British husband, as well as the wild lover. James: more rough around the edges than Richard, and of a different class. Keeps his wife, Stella, under his control. A master at games to maintain the upper hand and power. Becomes interested in exploring his sexuality with another man.
