Character Breakdown:

Asterius ... The Minotaur, late 20s, square-jawed and masculine, sullen, lonely, but too innocent for a monster, strong, gigantic, pale horns emerging from his forehead, almost surreal

Icarus ... A man, but more of a boy, 20s, blithe, fickle, pretty and craving attention

Ariadne ... A woman, Asterius' sister, 20s, selfish, passionate, literally unraveling for love

Pasiphae ... A woman, Asterius' mother, the Queen of Crete, far away from the things that move around her, haunted by the past

Chorus ... 3 women, blindfolded, oracular & sexualized, an ephemeral idea of one "woman" with the confidence of fate.
