A beautiful woman who loves classical music; her favorite composer is Bach. This role involves staged intimacy, without nudity.
ZORO/HIKER/SHIMON (Man, early to mid-20s, Jewish) He is an Eastern European Holocaust survivor who immigrated to Israel. He is awkward and eager to fit in and belong. He is quirky, philosophical, and bright, with a pedantic sense of humor. There is an underlying magnetism to him. He plays acoustic guitar and sings. A knowledge of chess is preferred as well as the ability to play the acoustic guitar and sing. This role involves staged intimacy, without nudity. Doubles as: HIKER: An Israeli military policeman, SHIMON: An Israeli vendor at a desert market, actively serving as an army reservist.
MICHAL (Woman, 19, Jewish) She is a lively, attractive, small-town young woman who gains a sense of independence after joining the Israeli army. She is eager to have a romantic relationship with an older, worldly man.
