6 roles
Corduroy is a kind, innocent and loveable old bear who's been passed over for shinier, louder toys for too many years, but meeting a little girl named Lisa makes Corduroy feel courageous. He will do whatever it takes, braving escalators, evading the nightwatchman, to become her bear. A strong physical storyteller. Clowning experience is a plus.
To play 9-12. A persistent, young girl with a bright imagination who finds a fast friend in a scruffy, old teddy bear: Corduroy. Lisa believes special toys like Corduroy just need a friend who understands them. She will do whatever it takes to bring him home, even chores. Maybe then they both won’t be lonely anymore. Female-identifying/Black
The Nighttime Security Guard is a buttoned-up security guard who takes their job very seriously - always dotting i’s and crossing t’s and making sure nothing is out of place. Kind, courteous, fastidious.
Lisa’s mother is kind, practical and busy doing all of the work it takes to manage a family and a household while her husband is out of town for business. She is a good mother to Lisa - she wants Lisa to grow into a responsible kid with a healthy social life. Female-identifying/Black
The Clowns are classic, Bill Irwin-esque characters who serve as a playful conduit between our audience and the story. The Clowns are very physical storytellers, working together using physical comedy and acrobatics to communicate.
