Synopsis: Cleome,
an acerbic New York writer, finds banter easier than love, whether with her father
or her noncommittal lover, Wallace. While Cleome's and Wallace's relationship
flounders, their best friends Alice and Jim fall head over heels. Alice's diagnosis
with cancer sets in sharp contrast the things we fear and the things we fear to
lose. Both comical and moving, Morphic Resonance is a classic metaphor for learning
that which may be impossible to know as individuals. Rover is pleased to bring
back this critical and audience favorite!.
Roles:
4
Men, 4 Women Cleome | |
late 20s to late 30s. An attractive, sophisticated New York writer. She comes
from money and doesn't really understand the real world of "work." Enjoys
witty conversation and fears commitment, despite the fact that she wants to be
loved. Is not close to her father | Wallace
| |
late 20s to late 30s. Cleome's male counterpart. He is also a writer, currently
working in publishing to pay the bills. He has an unofficial "list"
of what he's looking for in a woman and fights the fact that Cleome fits it perfectly | Alice | | late
20s to late 30s. A former dancer who is Cleome's best friend. She has been scarred
from a bad relationship and doesn't want to get hurt again, so falling in love
with Jim comes as a complete shock to her. Finds out she has cancer | Jim | | late
20s to late 30s. Wallace's best friend. He is a computer geek and a "man's
man." Like Alice, he has been hurt before and isn't looking for a relationship
so his fierce love for her is a surprise to him, too. Loves telling bad jokes. | Daddy
| | 50s+.
Cleome's father. He enjoys the finer things in life (especially his 80 year old
scotch) and has never understood his daughter. A former business tycoon who enjoys
playing on his intimidating persona, yet is human deep down after all |
