This delightful new comedy by the author of Cooking with Gus we know will appeal to a broad spectrum of audiences. A woman needs some ready cash right away because her apartment is about to be "condo-ed," the hot new verb of the 80's. As she believes she is going to win the big lottery, she withdraws her life savings to buy tickets. Meanwhile her husband, who left her three years before, arrives back home on her birthday, the day of the lottery drawing. The woman's sister has also bought a lot of tickets. The husband has bought one for her and one for him. The women think the husband has won with his tickets; but, it turns out, the reason he is flush is that he is now financially successful. Actually, one of the women just may actually have the winning ticket!
Available Roles:
Peg O’Leary: Early 60's, second-generation Irish, attractive and energetic. Peg is a religious, superstitious, opinionated non-stop talker.
Martin O’Leary: Same age as Peg. Also second generation; a retired New York cop. Charming, handsome, witty; he loves a great story and a drink.
Brian O’Leary: 25 and devilishly handsome. He’s gotten his mother’s looks and his father’s brains and charm. Inventive and likeable.
Rose Quain Cronin: Peg’s sister. Late 50's and built like the Blarney Stone. Headstrong, nouveau-riche, chain smoker. She wears her mink like a proud uniform.
Amy Baviello: 24. Smart and beautiful fiancee of Brian. Peg sees her only as the Italian who is taking her son from the priesthood.
Frank Baviello: Amy’s father. 50's. He’s handsome yet shifty. Perfect casting for a Mafia henchman.
Msgr. William Rafferty: 65. All blarney and bluster. Tip O’Neill in a Roman collar.
