TRACK 2: Male, 20s-30s. Proteus/Outlaw Proteus is a young nobleman in love with Julia who is sent to Milan to serve the Duke.

TRACK 3: Female, 20s-30s. Julia and an off-stage servant. Julia is a proud young noblewoman in love with Proteus. When Proteus is sent away from Verona by his father to serve at court in Milan, she disguises herself as a boy and follows him. THIS ROLE HAS BEEN CAST.

TRACK 4: Female, 20s-30s. Lucetta/Sylvia/Servant (offstage)/Outlaw. Lucetta is a smart and blunt servant to Julia. Silvia is a witty and smart young noblewoman who lives in Milan and is in love with Valentine. Her father wants her to marry an older man. Proteus falls for her upon their meeting.

TRACK 5: Male, 20s-30s. Speed/Thurio. Speed is servant to Valentine. He is quick witted and funny, and has the job of keeping Valentine's love schemes both secret and on time. Thurio is a friend of Silvia's father, a suitor he would prefer she marry rather than Valentine.

TRACK 6: Male, 20s-30s. Antonio/Duke/Launce/Outlaw. Antonio is the father of Proteus and a nobleman of Verona. The Duke is Silvia's overprotective father. Launce is Proteus' clownish servant and the frustrated owner of the disobedient dog Crab.
