Character Breakdown: BROOKLYN LAUNDRY Cast Unpacks Their Roles

♪��

Well, Owen, the character's name is Owen, he owns actually three laundromats

And one morning he's there because his assistant quit, and then a young lady walks in

and they kind of have, you know, he has an attraction to her, and they start talking about life

they start talking about, you know, how he got his three laundromats

and they kind of, you know, kind of connect with one another

And so they set out for a date. I think, and then there's a story

where she's dealing with two sisters, and they have eventful things happening in their lives

that's going to affect everybody. And it comes around, and we'll, you know, we have a

it's just a beautiful scenes that are written by John that's just going to make a great story

She's just so real, and she's innocent, and she's good, you know, and she's a little down in the dumps

and I can certainly relate to that, and especially, you know, coming in at this point in life

for these past three years, I've felt a little bit, I feel a little beaten down

And so it's nice to see her get to go through this journey

and there's so much love in this play, and there's so much, it's written with so much love

that I feel it, getting, just saying the words. Okay, I love Susie

Why do I love Susie? Because we are very different. She is, she's very organized

She's very responsible. She is the middle sister. She's very caring, and she's tough as nails

And, you know, she knows how to get stuff done. And she's an incredible mom

and an incredible sister to her sisters, and she wants what's best for her family

And I don't want to give away too much, so that's what I'll say, and I love her. And she's more stylish than I am

and I love that too, so yeah. So I play Trish. I play one of three sisters

I have two sisters, so that three points to find a plane

sort of that very special chemistry that three sisters have is something I think about

a lot in my life, so getting to be one of three sisters was definitely a draw

Trish is near the end of her life, and she has a very privileged perspective

as she's leaving this world on what is important, and what remains at the end

And she's so full of wonder. She's so full of gratitude. She's letting go

And the writing in my scene, I thought, I can't wait to say these words

They are so deep, and unexpected, and very, very sort of

she's having a lot of dreams, so she's having the opportunity to tell her loved ones

the things that she'll never get a chance to say again. So that kind of like, given 20 minutes

what would you say? When you could say no more after that

Is a very rare and precious opportunity as an actor
