20 roles

BoyMale18-30 y.o.All ethnicities

A nameless and friendless 13 year-old orphan, deeply mistrustful of adults and neglected. Actor must read young, regardless of actual age. This role involves intimacy choreography.

Molly AsterFemale18-30 y.o.All ethnicities

A 13 year-old apprentice Starcatcher desperate to prove herself to her father. Highly intelligent and physically adept, she remains socially awkward and something of a know-it-all, very competitive (think Hermione Granger from Harry Potter). Actor must read young, regardless of actual age. This role involves intimacy choreography.

Black StacheMale30-50 y.o.All ethnicities

A highly intelligent but malapropism-prone pirate chief. Stache is given to scenery chewing and anachronistic jokes, and has a hook in his future (think Gaston from Beauty and the Beast).

PrentissMale18-30 y.o.All ethnicities

One of the Boy’s orphan companions. Pompous and sarcastic, but a coward when pressed. Actor must read young, regardless of actual age.

TedMale18-30 y.o.All ethnicities

One of the Boy’s orphan companions, nicknamed ‘Tubby Ted’. Constantly hungry, he is obsessed with food. He accepts Molly as a mother figure immediately, often referring to her by that title. Actor must read young, regardless of actual age.

SmeeMale30-59 y.o.All ethnicities

Black Stache’s faithful first mate. More intelligent than he gives himself credit for (but still not overly bright), Smee is willing to follow his captain in any amount of hare-brained schemes.

Lord Leonard AsterMale40-69 y.o.All ethnicities

Molly’s father, A Starcatcher on a secret mission for Queen Victoria. Paranoid and frequently puts country over family. Emotional.

Fighting PrawnBoth genders36-54 y.o.All ethnicities

The fierce chief of the tribe of Mollusk Islanders. Also plays Grempkin, the sadistic schoolmaster of St. Norbert’s Orphanage for Lost Boys, Sanchez, one of Black Stache’s crew, and Mack, the world’s most incompetent Sailor.

Mrs. BumbrakeFemale36-54 y.o.All ethnicities

Molly’s faithful nanny, a prim and proper Englishwoman (must be able to play older and a bit fussy). Also plays Teacher, a wise and mysterious mermaid. Knowledge of Victorian-era deportment/etiquette a plus, but not required.

AlfMale35-54 y.o.All ethnicities

A salty and flatulent sailor on The Neverland, who falls deeply and instantly in love with Mrs. Bumbrake. He is good-natured but somewhat coarse and has no time for children.

Bill SlankMale40-69 y.o.All ethnicities

The nasty, greedy, and cruel captain of The Neverland. Also portrays Hawking Clam, Fighting Prawn’s son.
