[CHARLES FROHMAN/HOOK]
Principal, Male, 50’s. Any ethnicity. A wealthy American impresario who has stood by Barrie for much of his career. Known as “The Napoleon of Drama”. Doubles as HOOK–JM Barrie’s darker, alter-ego with a wicked sense of humor. Must have an excellent voice with a strong bari-tenor sound.
[SYLVIA LLEWELYN DAVIES]
Principal, Female, 20’s –30’s. Any ethnicity. A recent widow and mother of 4 boys, she encourages her boys to be free thinkers and is one herself. Must have a strong pop/rock belt and mix as well as strong soprano notes.
[MRS. DU MAURIER]
Principal, Female, 50’s – 60’s. Any ethnicity. A socialite and mother of Sylvia, She holds social etiquette in high esteem and wants her daughter to do the same.

[GEORGE]
Principal, Male, to play 12-14 years old. Any ethnicity. He is the oldest of the Davies boys. George is most sensible and mature though still able to play and have fun. Takes charge when he needs to. Must be a very strong mover and have an unchanged pop/rock voice.
[JACK]
Principal, Male, to play 10-12 years old. Any ethnicity. He is the second oldest of the boys, He is the naughtiest and most outlandish, but even his cheek comes from a good heart. Must have strong movement skills and an unchanged pop/rock voice.
[PETER]
Principal, Male, to play 8-10 years old. Any ethnicity. He is the second youngest of the boys. Peter is buried under the grief of losing his father.

Must move very well and have an unchanged pop/rock voice.
[MICHAEL]
Principal, Male, to play 6-8 years old. Any ethnicity. He is the youngest of the boys, is also possibly the loudest and most confident in his actions and his statements. Unknowingly funny. Must have an unchanged pop/rock voice.
