The Suspects
Kirk Goodwin - a low-level Hollywood producer - he’s worked on a few films, helping the executive producer find talent. The unfortunate victim.
Irvin Seles - A wannabe director with a BIG vision and an even bigger ego. He's currently grinding out life as the do-it-all man at the Canyon Club.
Maeve North - The talent booked for the week. A Broadway leading lady out in Hollywood trying to land her first role on the silver screen. She's sassy, proud, and the life of the party.
Benny Flugel - Doorman, Mafioso button man and wannabe comedian. He's got a line for everyone and everything - some of which hit home, but most of which are duds.
Jude Flowers - Judith runs the bar, sweeps the floors and is the most junior in the operation. She came to Hollywood hoping to make it big, but is happy to be earning a decent wage. She's actually very talented - just no-one has quite discovered her yet.
