NATALIE - Tom’s fiance- Age 25-35

Jerry and Marnie are Broadway actors who haven’t worked in years. At Jerry insistence, they take on a wildly unorthodox job for a rich, young New York banker poseing as the parents of Tom to meet his Fiance Natalie, Show People is a hilarious comedy about the darker aspects of the need to create and perform.
