gettin it together grouch

The characters in act one are mostly religious men and women fighting for what they believe in. Rachel, the daughter of Reverand Brown, has a dirty love affair with Cates. Cates is the teacher that taught the story of evolution to his sophmore class. The cynical reporter, E.K. Hornbeck, plays with the people by shaking a monkeys hand and saying "grandpa!" Brady is the prsecuter, he ran for president three times, and is a strong believer in the bible. Brady has one of the seven sins, gluttony, he over endulges in everything. for example at the at the banquet they have for him he east all the f00d. The style of writing is very southern, Hornbecks line are as if they were headlines in a paper.
