Bookings Open April 23

Characters

Character

Description

Ideal Performer Age

Peter Ravenswaal

Virile, strong, gruff-voiced and cynical. Other than being blind, you’d never guess he’s ill.

50’s - late 60’s

Nurse

Complaining, immature young woman who is somehow going to be a good nurse, some day.

20’s - early 30’s

Anita Merendino

Raised in the tough environment of the Bronx yet has a cheerful, almost innocent optimism. This hides a low self-esteem.

20’s - 30’s

Dominic de Caesar

Anita’s boyfriend. A good looking, but not brilliant street guy who can turn mean suddenly.

20’s - 30’s
