SEEKING:
DR. HORACE WELLS: Male. 34. Charismatic leading man. Prominent dentist. Discovers nitrous oxide as an anesthetic but fails to prove its worth. Betrayed by his former partner, Morton. Driven near mad after his failure and Morton’s duplicity. Loses everything. Dignified, honorable, and determined -- until he explodes.
ELIZABETH WELLS: Female. 27. Leading lady. Married to Horace and serves as his dental assistant. Kind, loving, and righteous. Only wants what is owed her husband. Defends Horace and his good name until the bitter end.
WILLIAM MORTON: Male. 27. Charming and attractive. Dentist. Horace’s partner until he breaks off to get married and become a doctor. Desperate to please people, lives in constant fear of others discovering who he really is.
ELIZABETH MORTON: Female. 20s. Comic Ingenue. William Morton’s wife. A graduate of Miss Porter’s school where she was given all the skills useful for marrying a wealthy husband. Idealistic and engaging. Possible brief nudity.
DR. JOHN WARREN: Male. 68. Powerful and patrician. Renowned surgeon and professor. Beacon Hill Blue-blood. A perfectionist who is constantly disappointed by others. Loves being a surgeon, very old school, he is not interested in a new way of doing things.
DR. HAYWARD: Male. 50. House surgeon. Tough and hard working. Should be valued more by the hospital, trying to hide his growing resentment.
