Excerpt from Putting It Over: A Dramatic Comedy in Three Acts

Tom Browne - A young man with a nervous, hysterical temperament. He is a morphine addict. Wears dinner clothes, derby hat, wet rain coat, carries wet umbrella.

Jack Stewart - This is a double role with Browne, the same actor playing both parts. The make-ups should be identical, but the costumes and mannerisms are entirely different. Stewart's manner is cool and collected, in strong contrast to Browne's hysteria. At Stewart's first entrance he wears a shabby genteel suit and hat, with no collar or tie. His face is hidden by a handkerchief which he has improvised as a mask. His clothing is wet. Changes to long bathrobe and bedroom slippers, with bare ankles. Act II, khaki coat and breeches, linen shirt with soft collar, black tie, leggings, soft felt hat. Act III, neat business suit.

Colonel Lane - Chairman of the board of directors of the Yuba Irrigation Co. Elderly, well-groomed, up-to-date business suit for each act. Changes to pajamas in Act I. White hair, white, close-cropped mustache, eye-glasses. Has a distinguished manner and a crisp, commanding manner of speech. Appears worried and depressed throughout Act I; later he brightens up.

Lannon - Considerably past fifty; has a somewhat pugnacious manner and a strong sense of humor; a grafter, but a good sport. Usual business clothes for each act, not so well groomed as Lane. Act I, wet motor coat, cap, goggles.

Bolton - About forty-five years old.
