Alan
Alan’s an Ex-Radio
Announcer in his 40’s, who’s been pitching his movie scripts for the past
five years, about his days as a Stand-Up Comic & Club Manager.
Alan took a part-time
position at The Phone Room, thinking it would be for a couple of months, little
did he realize it would turn out to be a couple of years!
He misses his days in the
comedy club, and to break up the monotony, he tries some new material from his
comedy script or his days as a Stand-Up to add to the banter that goes on
between his fellow co-workers.
His voice on the phone
sounds like a broadcaster on the radio, and the other callers love to do
impressions of him, especially Archie & Rainbow.
Alan enjoys eating
sunflower seeds, and Archie complains he makes so much noise, that he sounds
like a machine gun from his Vietnam days.
Alan’s a guy who likes
to read the sport’s page in between calls, and is always getting into
conversations about The Lakers, Dodgers, or whatever season it may be.
Some of Alan’s favorite memories growing up were when his Dad took him
to the Dodgers each year.
One other characteristic
of Alan is that he likes to flirt with the woman callers in The Phone Room, but
in a non-aggressive, less threatening way, so the woman callers get a kick out
of Alan’s flirtations.
While working at The
Phone Room he gets reacquainted with Charli, an actress, who begins to share her
experiences in The Phone Room, and they agree to collaborate on a script about
the pains & laughter of the employees of The Phone Room.
