SYNOPSIS
RAPTURE, BLISTER, BURN is a comedy about taking stock in your life choices.

When ambitious women studies professor Catherine returns to the college town where she went to grad school, she reunites with former boyfriend Don, and former roommate Gwen (cast), who have married and have 2 kids.

Soon Catherine is teaching a summer symposium on feminism and media to Gwen, her mother Alice, and college student Avery. Sexual tension and shifting alliances develop.

BREAKDOWNS
[CATHERINE]
40 to 45 years old, female.
Hot, a go-getter. Feminist author and professor, back living with her mother who recently had a heart attack. Regrets not settling down with grad school boyfriend, Don.

[ALICE]
60 to 75 years old, female.
Mother to Catherine, recently had a heart attack but is up on her feet. Traditional values but admires her feminist daughter and is supportive of her.

[AVERY]
21 to 24 years old, female. Avery is an ambitious, opinionated, confident college student (seeking an actress who is actually out of college to play this age range) who enrolls in a class on feminism and media.

[DON]
40 to 50 years old, Caucasian male.
Don is a dean at a liberal arts college in New England, and was a brilliant and charismatic grad student there many years ago. Now he's married with two kids, and lacks ambition, and his good looks have faded a bit. He drinks too much, smokes too much pot, and has his share of regret.
