All's Well
a new touring adaptation by J.C. Pankratz (they / them)
Opening 6 / 6
Performances 6 / 6-6 / 29 max 3 performances a week, Thurs-Sun, schedule pending
SEEKING :
- Track 1 - HELEN : they / them, 20s or 30s. Our protagonist, an orphan who has fallen in love with someone beyond their station. Bright. Determined but indecisive. Learning to speak their mind. Questioning a lot. Desperate to figure out their place in this world.
- Track 2 - BERTRAM / LAVATCH : he / they, 20s or 30s. Bertram is the countess' son and the reluctant object of Helen's affections. Proud but petty, ambitious, a mean-streak. A person who loves the height of his place in the world; Lavatch is the fool to the countess.
- Track 3 - COUNTESS / Musician : she / they, 40s . Bertram's mother and Helen's caretaker. Wise and patient, but not a pushover. Loves a dirty joke. Very accepting.
- Track 4 - PAROLLES / DIANA : they / them, 20s or 30s. DIANA : A young woman who agrees to help Helen seduce Bertram. Sharp, observant, confident a born performer. PAROLLES : Bertram's best friend. Your older brother's friend who is funny until he tells a joke that's a little too sexual. Flirty, confident, only so many brain cells. Diana and Parolles are the pinnacle of womanhood and manhood, respectively.
- Track 5 - KING (PUPPET) : he / they, 30s . King of France whom Bertram and Parolles serve under. Stern but kind and acquainted with gratitude. Slowly and unhappily accepting he's at the end of his days. Puppetry experience preferred.
