SYNOPSIS: Only hours before her intended burial, the late Mrs. McLeavy is
removed from her coffin by her son, Hal, and his best pal, Dennis, who have
together just robbed a bank and need the coffin to stash the loot.
Absurdity abounds in the dark, 1965 farce that examines attitudes
surrounding death, police integrity, and the Catholic church.

CHARACTERS:
All characters require the use of a British accent and excellent comedic
timing.

HAL - early 20s, gay, son of the deceased, full of Catholic guilt

DENNIS - early 20s, a sexual deviant, undertaker

FAY - mid to late 20s, a nurse, says she's a devout Catholic, uses her
sexuality to manipulate men

MR. MCLEAVY - middle aged, a recent widower, old-fashioned, a devout
Catholic, concerned about his son

INSPECTOR TRUSCOTT - middle aged, the bumbling police detective, embodies
every negative stereotype of the police force

MEADOWS - 20s-30s, police officer (minor role)

Equity members will be seen first at all open audition calls. Equity
