ROLE: HAPPY (Willy & Linda Loman’s younger son)
m, 25-35, English speaker, based in Frankfurt or surrunding areas.

In the scenes from the past we see Happy doing everything within his power to get his father to notice him.

In the present Happy has learned how to say what people want to hear, but neither of his parents takes him seriously.

On the face of it, the grown-up Happy appears to have achieved the things Willy wanted for his boys--a steady job, the social life of a popular single man, a car, and his own expensive apartment. However, Happy turns out to be a sham. He is lonely and longs for the chance to prove himself. He wants to meet a woman of substance like his mother. But he never will. He is a man without scruples and has no real desire to develop a life with values. He is generous enough to send his father to Florida for a vacation, but he isn't interested in spending time with him. By the end of the play it is clear that he is callous toward both his parents.
