Benedick: 30–50. Witty, sharp, and a bit jaded; a soldier on leave who tangles with his old flame and gets caught in a romantic web. Excellent with language, composed but capable of romantic vulnerability. Any ethnicity.
Leonato: 50+. Hero’s father, a loving and involved parent, but holds old ideals about love and marriage. Any ethnicity.
Beatrice: 30–50. Witty, sharp, and a bit jaded. Protective of her cousin Hero and prepared to go to any lengths to protect her from the vagaries of love’s heartache. She’s been hurt but is still capable of finding love. Any ethnicity. As cast.
