Directed by Tracy Ward

First Rehearsal: October 25th
Opens: November 12th
Closes: December 2nd

KAI: wants to be leader, is the natural leader, but isn't yet comfortable in taking it, needs to be given it.

GERDA: has qualities she is not yet aware of. Wouldn't naturally take the lead. A good girl. She really is. Just a little self satisfied.

CROW: is a follower. Would give you information (much of which you wouldn't need) or a joke, rather than engage emotionally or put himself on the spot.

ROBBER GIRL: only just feeling her power and finding herself. What gets called a tomboy, and is in the difficult position of taking that into womanhood. Occasionally assertiveness comes out as aggression or lack of feeling.
