Character Descriptions (4 men and 4 women):

William
Gillette: 35-50 years old. A professional actor, very over-the-top when
in “acting” mode and some of his melodrama carries over into his

personal demeanor. Handsome and full of life and energy.

Martha
Gillette: 55-70 years old. William’s mother. A bit empty-headed at first

blush, but smarter than she appears. Long-suffering and patient with

William. Accustomed to some level of comfort.

Felix Geisel: Early
40s, married to Madge. A professional actor, quite melodramatic in a
pleasant way. Enjoys quoting lines from classic plays in full
character.Simon Bright: 25-35. Aggie’s fiancé. Handsome, affectionate,
and good-natured, also an actor. Comes across as quite genial.

Madge Geisel: Early 40s, married to Felix. Flamboyant and playful, a perfect match for Felix’s extroverted personality.

Aggie Wheeler: 25-35. Simon’s fiancée. Pretty, smart, spunky, affectionate, and good-natured.

Inspector
Goring: 40-50 years old. British (if possible), eccentric, driven, and

very confident. In some ways she appears to view herself as a female

version of Sherlock Holmes, though the reality falls short.

Daria
Chase: Beautiful, smart, and very sure of herself. A theatre critic who

can give biting criticism and not be afraid to face the actors

afterward.  Very classy in appearance, accustomed to mingling in high society.

All experiences are welcome!! We look forward to seeing you there!
