    Show Summary

    Four months ago, Jessie was a corporate lawyer with a glamorous Manhattan life. Today, she is in dirty yoga pants, covered in breast milk, trying to comfort a screaming newborn. Isolated in a sleepy Long Island suburb while her commuter husband works long hours, Jessie is desperate to talk to anyone besides Food Network. So when she spies a fellow new mom and neighbor, Lina, at the local Stop & Shop, she vaults over the cantaloupe to introduce herself. Happy to have found each other, the two moms agree to meet for coffee during naptime in the sweet spot behind their adjoining yards where both their baby monitors get reception, and a fast friendship is born. Reluctantly, the duo tries to become a trio, but with very mixed—and surprising—results.  A comedy with dark edges, Cry It Out takes an honest look at the absurdities of being home with a baby, the power of female friend ship, the dilemma of going back to work, and the effect class has on parenthood in America.

    Available Characters

    Jessie (early/mid 30s, any ethnicity) - Married and recently relocated to Port (from Manhattan) to raise her family. Worked 90 hour weeks in the city as a corporate lawyer until her daughter, Allie, was born. Educated, lovely and warm. From the Midwest and has that Midwestern-ready smile. Beloved by every teacher she's ever had.  But in private, Jessie bends towards anxiety. She doesn't like empty days on the calendar, or being alone. 

    Lina (late 20s/early30s, any ethnicity) - From Long Beach and is very South Shore. Acrylic nails, big hoops, velour track suits, Mets trucker hats and a huge Italian family.  Lina failed out of community college, curses too much and blasts Kanye too loudly in the car. But she is also fantastically winning. She's fun, funny, and refreshingly genuine.  Works at St. Francis Hospital.

    Mitchell (late 20s-late 30s, any ethnicity) Works in investment capital. A math nerd who is amazing with numbers, but not people. Serious, shrewd, sensitive. The kid who ate his lunch in the library because he was so shy. Husband to Adrienne, a high end, very sought after jewelry designer, and father to Livia.
