Casting breakdown are as follows:

 

Gun Play (Comedy)

 

In the dark of night, on a deserted street, in a not-too-safe neighborhood, a young would-be mugger appears before his in­tended victim, a woman in her forties, who is returning home after taking an emergency flight to another city. He claims to have a gun, she disbelieves it. He quickly proves he is not up to the task he has chosen, while she as quickly shows she is not easily intimidated. They exchange biographies, more or less. It also becomes clear that she knows much more about guns than he does. When he does decide, however, that he has heard enough and demands again money from her, the situation takes an unexpected turn.

 

 

Emma Frisky: 35 – 45.  A bit of a character, she almost has the appearance of a bag lady. She can be short or tall, thin or a tad round, but what she isn't is sexy.  Eccentric, and a little flakey looking, when the chips are down, she's much more on top of thing than she appears.  Not easily frightened, Terry's in for a bit more than he bargain for when he tries to rob her.  Cast

 

Terry Gray: 17 -25.  Tall, can be thin, or slightly overweight. He speaks in a menacing voice, but very quickly we realize that he is no robber. He barely knows how to hold a gun. Within minutes of the robbery it is Emma who beings to terrorize Terry.
