Cast of Characters (3f, 2m)
Faith: (lead) 20’s-30’s. MATT’s sister in-law. Mouth like a drunken sailor, but we love her anyway.
Matt: (lead) 20’s-30’s. Married to FAITH’s sister, APRIL.
>>The roles of FAITH and MATT are very amorous and will require lots of COMEDIC
smooching. The actors portraying these roles will need strong physical comedic
sensibilities as well.<<
April:(supporting) 20’s-30’s. MATT’s wife and FAITH’s sister.
Diana:(supporting) 40’s-50’s +. FAITH’s and APRIL’s mother. An intelligent, level headed and sincere person, as well as a practicing Wiccan.
Uncle Clarence: (supporting) 40’s-50’s +. DIANA’s brother. Jovial, unpretentious, loose and a practicing Presbyterian Minister. Has several girlfriends, at least one of whom is married.
“KEEPING FAITH” (also produced as “Crisis of Faith”) has been produced
(as a one act) or performed as readings in NYC, (next Equity reading
January 29th), CT, Maine and Gettysburg College.
It is a rollicking
and racy comedy farce of the sexes, and as such is intended for mature
audiences.
The play opens with FAITH waking up along side her sister’s husband!
