SEEKING:

CHRIS: Male Identifying Character, 30s-40s, any ethnicity. High status clown. Rigid, uptight, everything really matters. He is the director of the show and this is the biggest day of his life. Everything is riding on this. It is a nerve wracking and exciting night. His pain is evident and every time someone laughs the pain deepens. He has equal amounts of contempt for his fellow actors & the audience watching the play. RP ACCENT.

TREVOR: Male Identifying Character, 30s-40s, any ethnicity. The play’s stage manager. He simply wants to get on with the show. Curmudgeonly and doesn’t care for actors. He is easily distracted and does many things he shouldn’t, including engaging with the audience. When things go really sideways, he is forced to act in the play. He hates acting. AMERICAN ACCENT.

JONATHAN: Male Identifying Character, 30s-40s, any ethnicity, RP accent. A bit bland, but sees himself as a James Bond type. Excited and having fun, but not naïve. He technically has to drive the show. He cares about the play, but not to the same extent as the others. Very Physical role. RP ACCENT.

LUCY: 18+ to play younger. Robert’s niece in the company. Timid, naïve and vulnerable clown. She suffers from stage fright and is terrified by the whole experience of performing however finds her voice and confidence at the end. RP ACCENT.

MAX: OFFER OUT. Male Identifying character; late 20s to 30s; any ethnicity. Inexperienced and naive. Max's ability to connect with the audience despite his inexperience creates a uniquely charming character. RP Accent.

UNDERSTUDIES: for Francis, Annie, Sandra, Trevor and Robert

THE FOLLOWING ROLES HAVE BEEN CAST:

FRANCIS: (NARRATOR and CECCO in the play) A robust professional who, despite his best efforts, fruitlessly tries to keep the production together.

ANNIE: (MARY DARLING, LISA, TIGER LILY, and TINKER BELL in the play) After an unexpected taste of the spotlight, Annie is deeply committed to each of her many roles but finds herself biting off more than she can chew.

SANDRA: (WENDY DARLING in the play) Ambitious, flirtatious with a huge ego. Believing herself the quintessential leading lady, she tries to steal the scene at every turn that leads her to constantly overact.

ROBERT: (NANA and STARKEY in the play) Robert likes to think he is a leading man, although he may not entirely resemble one. He truly believes that he can act his way out of every predicament. Committed to the play 100%. This is not a parody of bad acting, it's just that Robert is unaware of those around him. Single-minded and bombastic. Auguste clown.

DENNIS: (JOHN DARLING and MR SMEE in the play) Wretched, low status and terrified of being in a play. The sole reason he joined the Society was to make friends, but this has back-fired somewhat. Not a good actor at all but imbues everything with a painful truth. Naive clown.

UNDERSTUDY: for Chris, Jonathan, Max and Dennis
