Lead Character Bios

Here are the lead character bios! Enjoy!

Fredrick DuWright:
Fredrick, known more commonly as Fred, is a genius playwright for hire. Producers looking for extreme profit in the theatre industry often seek him out and pay him to write the next big hit play. Fred is always happy to comply, but rarely finishes on time. He is a recovered addict from a drug called Thunderbird-a drug made from an over the counter pain killer and injected sleeping medication. Fred spent five years in recovery, and could not have made it through without the help of his closest and dearest friend Kristy Lambent. Kristy and Fred have been together for as long as they can remember, but it wasn't until recently that they began dating. Fred is eccentric and intelligent, yet calm and lazy at the same time. If it wasn't for Kristy, Fred would never get his plays finished and published. Fred loves Kristy to death but because of his stubborn personality, refuses to propose to her. Fred tries to do everything he can to keep Kristy happy, but feels that he isn't worthy of her and often drops the ball. (NOTE: Referred to as FRED in stage directions).

Jason Malcolm:
Jason is Fred's best friend. Jason and Fred met shortly after Fred's recovery, and although Jason knew that Fred had suffered from drug problems, he was never told the exact name of the drug that he used. Jason is an attractive and lively person, and he has fun in helping his friends get through tough times. An excellent liar, Jason works undercover for a secret government service that is trying to eliminate a rising drug epidemic in the California Anaheim area. Jason and the government team that he leads play together in a band known as The Mesopotamians. After their gigs and performances, Jason and The Mesopotamians attend parties where they learn of drug dealers and buyers. Later during the night, Jason and his teams conduct midnight raids where they bust buyers and dealers. Lately, there has been a rise in a new drug known as Thunderbird. The drug was known before, but was quickly forgotten due to the price increase of over the counter medicines. Jason and his team have been expected to wipe out the rise of Thunderbird. (NOTE: Jason is a British-American, but does not have an accent).

Kristy Lambent:
Kristy acts as Fred's unofficial secretary, making sure that his work gets done and that-when it doesn't-his clients don't get angry. Kristy is extremely stubborn but extremely supportive. Her quirky and sparkling personality often brings out the best in Fred. Irritated that Fred hasn't yet proposed to her, Kristy finds herself frequently talking with Megan Cliffe, The Mesopotamians' sound manager. Kristy and Megan talk about both Fred and Jason, and wonder why both men are so introverted. They fear for both of them, and pray that everything will turn out fine in the end. When things begin to start getting shaky, and Fred puts work aside for other matters, Kristy begins to doubt whether or not Fred will be able to overcome his dark past. Kristy, however, has an undying faith that Fred will pull through in whatever he does no matter the odds. Kristy loves him to no end; she refuses to give up on him. She even goes so far as to put his needs before her own. "After all," she states, "isn't that what love is?"

Blue Canary:
Blue Canary is one of the two conflicting forces that live within Fred's mind. Similar to a shoulder angel, Blue wants Fred to do only what is right, even at the expense of not being able to do what he wants. Blue is an odd individual who appears to only those who need his help. His past achievements include battling off Jason and the Argonauts, and he prides himself in his victories against Bill, his opposing force. Blue will stop at nothing to see Fred thrive, and only appears to Fred after he has a fight with Kristy. Blue quickly helps Fred correct his mistake, and tries to lead him to success in writing his new experimental film for a wealthy producer. But it is overcoming Thunderbird that proves to be the the biggest challenge for Blue. Blue will do anything to make Fred and Kristy's lives happy and successful. (NOTE: Referred to as BLUE in stage directions).

Bill:
Bill is the other force living within Fred's mind. Bill is a dark and brash personality whose past achievements include the Rise of the Argonauts. He has been battling with Blue for centuries, but does not seem to mind him. In fact, it seems that although he is indifferent to Blue entirely, he still finds it interesting that Blue gets annoyed with him so easily. Bill cannot be rightly represented as Fred's shoulder devil. He does not necessarily want him to do evil, but rather do what he desires to do the most. If Fred desires to do something right, then Bill will encourage him to do so. However, this works on the opposite end of the spectrum as well. Bill was born from the elements and thus has a harsh view of the world, and when he appears to Fred before Blue does he tells Fred that "Win or lose, I'm gonna make it all worth while."

Megan Cliffe:
Megan works as sound manager for The Mesopotamians at all of their shows. She does not know about the band's duplicity, and is upset that the band does not let her attend their late night "parties". Megan loves Jason to death, but her shy attitude leaves Jason unawares even though he has stated that Megan is beautiful and kind. Because Jason is so absorbed in his work and because Megan makes no advances, Jason leaves their relationship at mere friendship. Megan, however, is trying her best to speak up about her feelings, and finds herself speaking about Jason with Kristy quite a bit. Megan feels that something is going on with Jason, and is trying her best to help him out by being there for him when he needs her.
