CAST OF CHARACTERS
CASEY CLEMENT — Known as CC Clement to stand-up comedy fans, Casey is as brash as her purple hair, as restless as her Converse hi-tops. From her first trip in time, when she dodges an assailant in Manhattan 1927, Casey soars like her HBO special “CC Clement — Comedy Rising.” Finally, disgusted with everything, she buys a one-way ticket to the past. “Me and the present — we’re history!”
GUY MCGEE — Just another Brooklyn millennial sick of local hipsters, Guy travels back to see whether he was really the first NYC baby born in 2000. Or had his parents lied about that, too? What he discovers sends him farther back in search of himself and a life he can believe in. It’s just like his beloved Radiohead — “How to Disappear Forever.”
THE TIMEMASTER — Creep. Twerp. (Cue CC Clement) — “jerkface, sexist, macho, slimeball, egomaniacal scumbag. . .” But the Silicon Valley genius and his breakthrough, digitime, make TimeLiners possible. Now if he can only curb his debauchery, dodge the feds, and pursue his next techno-quest — male height enhancement.
PROFESSOR JILL CLEMENT HOLMES — Casey’s nagging “Momster,” the retired physicist chases her errant daughter into the past. Jill’s best-selling memoir, Time Out of Time, recounts her chase and gives insights into time itself.
THE PIONEERS — The first group of travelers riding Time Jockeys Flight 1927 to Manhattan.
THE ROMANTICS — Lovelorn passengers heading back to relive first dates, first kisses, lost affairs.
THE NOSTALGICS — Care to ride a classic train? Relive the Reagan years? Roll in the mud at Woodstock? Be careful what you wish for.
THE FANS — Celebrity obssessed travelers who chase down Hemingway, Jackie O, and the Beatles on Abbey Road. Then they set their sights on Einstein.
THE REST — “Get in line, have your time passports ready, because by 2028, everyone who was strung out, frazzled, worn ragged by our own time, which meant everyone, was headed for the past.”
