The Break-Up - 2024 UNC MFA Acting Showcase Scene

Starring Hayley Cartee and Heinley Gaspard (Yours Truly)
Produced by Millbrook Studios Studios in association with The MFA Professional Actor Training Program of The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's Department of Dramatic Art.
Directed by Tia James
Written by Vince Vaughn, Jeremy Garelick, and Jay Lavender
At the culmination of our 3 year Professional Acting Training Program, our cohort carefully researched, workshopped, rehearsed, selected, and eventually, filmed short scenes from film, TV, or theatre. This scene was selected for Hayley and I. In this scene Gary and Brooke, who live together as a couple, have their relationship come to a head. Brooke becomes irate when Gary fails to offer to help her clean up after a big dinner party at their home. Still frustrated from their unresolved earlier argument, where Brooke calls Gary immature and he calls her controlling, she breaks up with him (despite still being in love with him). Thanks for watching!!!
