Cast of Characters -  All roles open

Harry Brock – A wealthy junk dealer from New Jersey.  40’s to 50.  A large, even “gross” man (Kanin’s description.)  Always in control.  Is used to being obeyed when he gives orders.  Has no respect for anyone, no matter his/her position.  Can be cruel and vindictive, but has an occasional soft spot.

Billie Dawn -  Harry’s mistress for the past seven years. 30’s. Strikingly beautiful (according to the script!) and also quite simple, uneducated, shrewd. Her way of getting what she wants:  “If he don’t come across, I don’t come across.”

Paul Verrall – A Washington Journalist.  Mid to late 30’s. Personable, alert, clever, energetic.  Takes himself a bit too seriously.  Wears glasses.

Ed Devery – Harry’s attorney.  50’s to 60’s. Once a brilliant lawyer and secretary to a great Supreme Court Justice, now has only one client and a serious addiction to Scotch.  Always a little drunk.

Senator Norval Hedges – A U.S. Senator.  60’s to mid 70’s. Pale, worn, looks like, but isn’t, a great man.

Mrs. Hedges – His wife. Early to late 60’s. Fashionable.  Bridge player. Timid.

Eddie Brock - Harry's cousin. 40's.  The muscle in Harry's entourage. Strong, not too sharp, sycophantic.

Asst. Manager, Helen (a maid,) Bellhop, Barber, Manicurist, Bootblack, Waiter.  Some of these roles may double
