Character Breakdown

- JULIA SULLIVAN: Waitress. The pretty “girl next door” in looks and personality. Engaged to Glen but falls in love with Robbie and is conflicted as to who to choose. Empathetic, caring, and brave. Female, 25-35 yrs old. Range: G3 – F5
- SAMMY: The bass player in the wedding band and one of Robbie’s best friends. A total guy’s guy, but beneath his pretending to love being a bachelor he is actually in love with Holly. Male, 25-35 yrs old. Range: C4 – A5
