12 roles

Black StacheMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

A notorious pirate, terrorizing the seven seas in search of a worthy adversary. Heartless, hirsute, and suspiciously well read. Partial to the poetical and theatrical, which causes him to behave quite flamboyantly.

Molly AsterFemale18-25 y.o.All ethnicities

A young girl and Starcatcher apprentice who is taken aboard the Neverland as precious cargo. Curious and intelligent, she is only beginning to understand the confusing romantic longings that come with her age. She will risk anything for the sake of what is right.

Boy/PeterMale18-25 y.o.All ethnicities

A lonely and hardened orphan who doesn't miss much. Nameless, homeless, and friendless at the beginning of the play and a hero by the end. He wants a home and a family more than anything, and dreams of a life of being free.

GrempkinMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

The schoolmaster of St. Norbert's Orphanage for Lost Boys. Mean and malodorous, he revels in keeping his boys in the dark and malnourished. Also plays Fighting Prawn; Mack; Sánchez.

Mrs. BumbrakeFemale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Molly's nanny, a stereotypical British cad outfitted with the duty of teaching Molly about womanhood. She still has enough charm in her age to attract a sailor or two. Also plays Teacher.

Bill SlankMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

The vicious orphaned captain of the Neverland. Does not possess the capacity to lead anyone but himself, which puts himself constantly in disaster. Greedy enough to send boys to their doom for the chance of gaining starstuff. Also plays Hawking Clam.

SmeeMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Black Stache's first mate. He is single-mindedly dedicated to his captain's every whim.

PrentissMale18-25 y.o.All ethnicities

An orphan, ambitious, hyper articulate, and logical. He yearns to be leader, even when he knows in his heart that he'll never be one. A bit of a blowhard with a touch of cowardice.

AlfMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

A seafarer, an old sea dog proud of his tenure. His kind heart gives him an appeal to the feminine sensibility.

Lord Leonard AsterMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Molly's father, a loyal subject to the Queen. The very model of a Victorian English gentleman, he is a faithful friend and a secret Starcatcher.

Captain Robert Falcon ScottMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Lord Aster's old school friend, the captain of the Wasp, Britain's fastest frigate. Lives with nautical bravura and heroic patriotism.

TedMale18-25 y.o.All ethnicities

An orphan obsessed with food. A natural performer with easy wit and quite poetic language.
