Roles
| Role | M/F | Age | Description | Walter Hollander | M | 40-60 | A loud, opinionated New Jersey tourist who means well but always makes things worse. Big energy and great comedic timing. | Marion Hollander | F | 40-60 | Walter's dramatic and excitable spouse who tries to keep the family together amid the madness. | Susan Hollander | F | 20-30 | The Hollanders' sensible daughter who finds herself falling for Axel amid the chaos. Smart and grounded with a touch of sweetness. | Axel Magee | M | 20-30 | The nervous, well-meaning son of the ambassador who's suddenly in charge. Awkward, charming, and endearing. | Krojack | M | 30-50 | A tough, no-nonsense Eastern Bloc officer determined to catch the Hollanders. Great role for someone who loves deadpan humor. | Father Drobney | M | 40-60 | A quirky priest who's been hiding in the embassy for years. Eccentric, warm, and a little offbeat. | Ambassador Magee | M | 50-70 | The distracted, slightly pompous U.S. ambassador who’s mostly absent but always amusing. | Kilroy | M | 20-40 | Embassy security guard with sharp comedic delivery and a bit of attitude. | Chef | M | 30-60 | The overworked embassy cook who adds to the comedic chaos. Great smaller comedic role. | Sultan | M | 40-60 | A visiting dignitary who unwittingly adds to the confusion. Fun cameo-style part. |
