Don Cheadle (Bobo)


I am going to cast Don Cheadle as Bobo. I have chosen this actor to play as Bobo because his physical appearance indicates the play's description of this character. Bobo is a slight little African American man with frightened eyes.  Bobo, Willie Harry, and Walter have decided to open up a liquor store business together. Bobo appears close to the end of the play to bring bad news for Walter and the family. The news is so shocking that he doesn't know how to put it into words. He is afraid to look at Walter's eyes and he keeps repeating his sentences because he is very nervous. Near tears and looking pitiful and finally crying, he tells them that Willie has run away with their money (p.1068/9).
