4 role s
(She/her/they/them) Daughter to Duke Senior. Is banished alongside cousin and bff, Celia, where chaos, delight, joy, and LOVE ensues. Disguises themselves as “Ganymede” for LOVE (and with Orlando).
Rosalind’s cousin, child of Duke Frederick. Fabulous, a bag of sass and more, and astonishingly bright and fiery. Is banished alongside Rosalind. Falls for Oliver, or is it the other way around?! This role will be shaped alongside the performer’s gender, so welcome submissions from any folks who identify with this track.
(He/him) Orlando’s brother, who tries to have him exiled. Total bro, they mean his name is Oliver, after all. Wears old spice, says it all, doesn’t it. BUT – goes through a redemption arc, earns and grants forgiveness, and falls in love and becomes a great companion for Celia.
(Role will be shaped around the performer) Perceptive. Speaker of truths with a melancholic slant. And a voice of the here, the now, and an observer of the frustrations and celebrations of the best and worst of human nature. Funny without knowing it
