The jazz and gin-soaked party rages to a mounting sense of threat as artifice and illusion are stripped away. When midnight debauchery leads to tragedy at dawn, this dark and decadent musical reminds us that no party lasts forever.</span></div><div><span mce_style="font-size: 15.6px;"><br></span></div><div><em><strong><span mce_style="font-size: 130%;">*This show contains adult content.</span></strong></em></div><div><em><strong><span mce_style="font-size: 130%;"><br></span></strong></em></div><h2><span mce_style="font-size: 150%;">Character Breakdown </span></h2><div><span mce_style="font-size: 150%;">* The age range for each character is flexible and all ethnicities will be considered.</span></div><div><em>There are only a few times throughout the show that </em><em>people leave the stage.
