ABOUT THE PLAY
It’s 2004, and 14-year-old Shelby Hinkley has kidnapped Tobey Maguire, at the height of his career, to force him into marrying her. Samantha Hurley’s laugh-out-loud dark comedy, steeped in Y2K nostalgia, explodes our para-social relationships and the obsession that detonate them.

BREAKDOWN
SHELBY HINKLEY (14, F played by an adult 18+)
Awkward, intense. President of the Tobey Maguire Fan Club. The girl in middle school who eats lunch by herself in the bathroom. Probably some orthodontic work going on.
TOBEY MAGUIRE (28-29, M)
The famous actor. In the height of his Spiderman fame. Nasty alcoholic and drug addict.
A THIRD ACTOR (Adult, Any Gender) plays:
BRENDA DEE CANKLES - Real estate agent, cornhole enthusiast, silly woman
SHELBY’S MOM - Glued to her loveseat, perpetually watching daytime TV and eating yogurt
TOBEY MAGUIRE POSTERS - From Tiger Beat Magazine. Manufactured Hollywood version of Tobey.
Assorted other characters.
