NEEDED: 3 F, 2 M
Elizabeth Miller - A woman; 40s, a widow, a single mother; strong, steadfast, capable, but sarcastic and definitely not the best communicator; honestly trying to do right by her son and make this day like any other.
Bailey Miller - A man; early 20s, sarcastic, hipster, a bit sullen, but pleasant enough if pushed & hungry to fit in. Struggling to find his footing in life. Dissociative. And probably very dangerous.
Maxine Sailors - A woman; early 20s, beautiful, full of promise, erratic & really not as nice as she could be ‐ but given the circumstances, it’s hard to fault her.
Cerberus - A woman; laid‐back therapist vibe, pretty with a pedigree, but not snooty, the personification of the mythic, three‐headed dog guarding the entrance to the underworld.
Radio Voice/Death - A “man;” good natured with a wry, warm humor to take the edge off; sharp in look with a good flow, but a bit out of sorts. A force of nature.

ABOUT THE SHOW:
PLUTO
by Steve Yockey
February 20 - March 7, 2015
Directed by Ron May
The new play from the writer of WOLVES and OCTOPUS.
In the wake of a violent tragedy at a local community college, a single mother struggles to reconnect with her withdrawn son across the breakfast table as mysterious forces threaten to invade the kitchen. Continually interrupted by a talkative three-headed dog, a radio gone haywire, and an animated refrigerator, time is running short for mother and son to deal with the morning's events. “And so I leave you with a warning: This is not Yockey writing in the sexually sinister, frequently delicious style of “Wolves” and “Octopus.” It is a much more potent cup o’ joe. Not everyone will want to see this play. Those who do may never be the same again.” – Atlanta Journal Constitution
