10 roles
A confident, modern and savvy young woman, hired to be the hosts' secretary. Intelligent and capable, Vera is charming and emotionally complex, but has clear moments of anxiety, vulnerability, and paranoia as the situation unravels. Strong physical presence and emotional range required.
A swaggering, charismatic soldier of fortune. Captain Lombard is a magnetic and resourceful man with a mysterious past and seductive presence. He exudes charm, confidence, and an undeniable undercurrent of danger. Strong stage presence and physical agility required. Should be believable both as a suave seducer and scrappy survivor, with the audience unsure whether to trust him or not.
A spoiled, rich, and fit young man-very aware he's all three. Flirtatious charm meets fully toxic "f-boy" energy, Antony's charisma only barely masks his narcissism. A thoughtless and narcissistic show-off, Anthony's default is using his money, connections, and physical attributes to attract women, intimidate men, and avoid the consequences of his actions.
A former police inspector. Blore is practical and often skeptical in the face of the mystery. Has a grounded, physical presence in scenes with others after a brash introduction. Unravels some as the situation deteriorates. (Role requires a passable South African accent for a portion of dialogue. CCT can coach.)
A well-respected doctor with a nervous energy, nagging guilt, and a secret he wants to keep buried. Knowledgeable and professional, Dr. Armstrong grows more and more rattled as the situation intensifies. Must portray a brittle sense of control. Role requires both polish and panic, and the ability to shift between calm authority and strong anxiety.
A retired judge with a stately presence. Intelligent, composed, and methodical, the unflappable Wargrave naturally takes charge when things unravel. Requires a near-Shakespearean gravitas, vocal control, and the ability to hold the room without unnecessary theatricality.
An experienced, polished manservant with his own secrets. Polite and restrained in front of the guests, hidden layers of stress and tension lie beneath the surface and are revealed when alone or with his wife, Ethel.
Pale, quiet, and anxious, Ethel is Thomas's wife and the mansion's housekeeper stress she is under and the guilt she feels is apparent as she moves from irritation, to fragility, to fear, sometimes in a single scene.
A judgmental woman with strict moral convictions. Proper, stern, and unapologetic, her emotional repression is masked by an ice-cold authority. Actor must project closed-minded judgment without caricature; she is not a stereotype. Emily commands the audience's attention, even at her least sympathetic.
A retired military officer. Dignified and reflective, with a distant air and a strong connection to the past. Needs to convey a deeply haunted interior stillness. Should have presence, gravitas, and subtle vulnerability.
