SEEKING
Gillian Holroyd:
(Female late 20s) Smart, sexy, witty, and has a dry sense of humor. She's mostly low-key about her powers as a witch and tries to blend in. But when a push comes to shove, she has an edge and can be scary. Seeking a leading actress with stamina.
Shepherd Henderson:
(male Early 30s) Smart, handsome, masculine, square-jawed and - at the start of the play - rather tightly wound. He's got the right job, is engaged to a very proper (and probably frigid) girl, and everything in his life is right"on schedule." But then he falls in love and has fabulous out-of-this world sex with a gorgeous witch and the whole world changes. Seeking actor with adept w/ physical comedy.
Nicky Holroyd:
(Male late 20s – early 30s) Gillian's warlock brother. Funny, dilettante, capricious. Enjoys being a warlock but is not nearly as good at it as his sister. Mostly uses it to pull pranks on people and to escape from having to work very hard. Possibly sexually ambiguous.
Miss Holroyd (Auntie Queenie):
(Female 50s - 60) A plump, endearing, and somewhat infantile woman. She's always caught with her hand in the cookie jar and Gillian has to clean up after her. She loves the idea of being a witch, even though she's not very good at it.
