AUDREY [20–40] A shepherdess in the Forest of Arden and eventual wife of Touchstone. Country to the core and loves it.
CELIA [20–35] The young daughter of Duke Frederick, cousin to Rosalind, and eventual wife of Oliver. Fierce defender of the people she loves.
JAQUES [35–55] A traveler. Not without humor, but carries with her a deep sadness.
PHOEBE [Female Identifying, 20–35] A shepherdess in the Forest of Arden and eventual spouse of Silvius. Straightforward and sharp, but not without warmth and humor.
ROSALIND [20–35] The young daughter of Duke Senior, cousin to Celia, and spouse of Orlando. Razor sharp wit, a quick tongue, and a giant heart.
CHARLES [20–35] Duke Frederick's champion wrestler. Not a bad guy but does what needs doing. Stage combat experience required.
DUKE FREDERICK [40–55] Father of Celia and usurping brother of Duke Senior. Cruel and paranoid tendencies with hope for redemption.
OLD SIR ROWLAND [30–55] The late father of Orlando and Oliver.
OLIVER [25–40] Older sibling to Orlando and eventual spouse of Celia. Angry and jealous of Orlando, but not sure why. Stage combat experience a plus.
ORLANDO [20–35] Younger brother to Oliver and eventual spouse of Rosalind. Leads with his heart and is desperate to find a place for himself. Stage combat experience required.
SILVIUS [20–35] A young shepherd and eventual spouse of Phoebe. Head over heels and devoted (to a fault) to Phoebe.
TOUCHSTONE [25–50] Duke Frederick's jester and eventual spouse of Audrey. A natural entertainer, lightning fast thinker, and would be a cynic if not for his soft heart.
WILLIAM [20–40] A resident of Arden who loves Audrey. Simple, sweet, and no match for competing with Touchstone.
ADAM [Any Gender, 40+] An employee of Orlando's late father who now looks after Orlando. Loyal and kind.
AMIENS [Any Gender, 25+] A talented bard and follower of Duke Senior. Down to earth and warm. Must sing and play an acoustic instrument.
CORIN [Any Gender, 40+] A shepherd who eventually works for Rosalind and Celia. Beautifully simple and a natural philosopher.
DUKE SENIOR [Any Gender, 40–55] Parent of Rosalind and usurped sibling of Duke Frederick. Gentle, yet firm; a leader who is able to inspire others in the worst of circumstances.
LE BEAU [Any Gender, 25–65] A servant in Duke Frederick's court. Does his bidding, but not without conscience.
