2 roles

MOTHERFemale30-55 y.o.All ethnicities

Ralphie and Randy’s mother. Loving wife and mother, the glue in the family unit. She is by far the smartest and most knowledgeable person in the family but lives by the rules of 1940 and plays the devoted wife and dutiful mother, keeping everything together and swallowing her pride. It takes a lot to get her frazzled, but a provocative leg lamp finally puts her over the edge.

THE OLD MANMale30-55 y.o.All ethnicities

Ralphie and Randy’s father. Loving father and husband. Good hearted but can be grumpy, he has a deep desire to be a winner but always seems to lose. He thinks he’s very clever. He’s not.
