2 roles
A scholar from the Persian city of Isfahan, Lady Yasamin arrives in Emperor Akbar's court as part of a proposed marriage alliance for Prince Salim. She is quietly brilliant, deeply educated, and impossible to rattle. Yasamin listens more than she speaks, notices what others miss, and delivers her observations with understated precision. Her calm intelligence gradually makes her indispensable to the political intrigue unfolding around her.
A skilled negotiator from a prominent trading family in Khorasan, Lady Mehrangiz comes to court as part of the same marriage alliance. Warm, charismatic, and politically astute, she understands that diplomacy is often more powerful than force. She can settle a generations-old dispute over tea—and leave having secured exactly what she wanted. Every conversation is a negotiation, and every negotiation feels effortless. Seeking an actor comfortable with quick, intelligent dialogue, sharp timing.
