Next they turn on the lights, get dressed, and begin the slow process of getting to know one another. Terence McNally’s two-time Broadway hit is as frank as it is funny, showing two people navigating the insecurities of modern romance over a single night. Their journey is both as timely as a tweet and as timeless as a full moon spilling through the window. Finally its glow will warm your heart.</div><div style=""> </div><h2 style="">Character Breakdown </h2><div style="">* Both roles may require partial nudity.</div><div style=""><strong style="">FRANKIE (30's-50's):</strong> Striking but not conventional good looks. She has a sense of humor and a fairly tough exterior. She is also frightened and can be very hard to reach.</div><div style=""><strong style="">JOHNNY (30's-50's): </strong>Johnny's best feature is his personality. He works at it. He is in good physical condition.</div><div style=""><br style=""></div><div style=""> </div><div style=""> If you have any questions feel free to contact us at <a href="mailto:patrick@blankcanvastheatre.com" target="_blank" style="">patrick@blankcanvastheatre.<wbr style="">com</a>.
