Characters:

LESLIE: A driven press secretary who often assumes the role of the team leader. Leslie is intensely focused on delivering a polished presentation to the audience and defending the administration's actions — no matter how ridiculous. She is frequently exasperated by Jordan's reluctance and Avery's chaos, but she also shows flashes of vulnerability when her authority is questioned. Leslie thrives on control, structure, and clear messaging, though she's willing to bend history for the sake of spin. 

​

JORDAN: The most skeptical and emotionally layered of the trio, Jordan oscillates between biting sarcasm and sincere disillusionment with her role in the administration. Jordan’s strained relationship with her ex bleeds into her performance, leading to emotional outbursts, accidental honesty, and moments of rebellion against the carefully constructed narrative. Though clever and capable, Jordan is increasingly disillusioned and questions whether defending a flawed administration is worth the cost. She provides a grounding counterbalance to Leslie’s spin and Avery’s absurdity.

​

AVERY: The comic wildcard. Avery brings chaotic, childlike energy to the team — eager to please, easily distracted, and constantly veering off-script. She plays multiple characters throughout the historical reenactments, and often acts as a peacekeeper between Leslie and Jordan, albeit in hilariously unhelpful ways. Avery has a good heart and a short attention span, but is also surprisingly insightful in emotionally charged moments. Her blend of sincerity and silliness makes her endearing and unpredictable. (This role has been pre-cast).

Synopsis:

A dark duologue filled with sharp storytelling and biting repartee, A Steady Rain explores the complexities of a lifelong bond tainted by domestic affairs, violence, and the rough streets of Chicago. Joey and Denny have been best friends since kindergarten, and after working together for several years as policemen in Chicago, they are practically family: Joey helps out with Denny's wife and kids; Denny keeps Joey away from the bottle. But when a domestic disturbance call takes a turn for the worse, their friendship is put on the line. The result is a harrowing journey into a moral gray area where trust and loyalty struggle for survival against a sobering backdrop of pimps, prostitutes, and criminal lowlifes.
