Role breakdowns:

Disney:
WALT (as in Disney), 50’s, ego-maniac, chain-smokes the entire play.
ROY, brother to Walt
DAUGHTER, Walt’s daughter, more or less motherly
RON, son-in-law, dumb jock, a Golden Retriever of a person.

Church & State:
SENATOR CHARLES WHITMORE, Male, 40s-50s. Incumbent U.S. Senator from N.C., up for re-election. Charlie is a man filled with doubt. But he has plenty of charisma and sex appeal. He's a rare honest politician and gifted public speaker.
SARA WHITMORE, Female. 40s. Charlie's wife. A big, brassy, former real estate agent, now stay-at-home mom. She is sweet, charming and instantly likable.
ALEX KLEIN: Female. 30s-40s. Charlie's campaign manager. A fast-talking, no nonsense liberal Jew from New York whose star is on the rise as a go-to campaign manager.
TOM / MARSHALL / REPORTER / SECURITY GUY: Male. 20s-30s. An NC State graduate and North Carolina boy through-and-through. Tom is more "country," while Marshall is more of a "southern gentleman." Tom is a paid intern with the campaign. Simple with a good heart. Marshall is a blogger with Christian values but not much journalistic experience. News Anchor is a smart, charming on-the-scene news reporter. Security Guy is a typical non-speaking bodyguard.
