Male, 60’s-70’s, both roles are played by the same actor.

Normal Vincent Peale is a famous minister and best-selling author of “The Power of Positive Thinking.” Baritone. Ensemble.
GEORGE GOULD STRONG
Male, 30’s-40’s. Edith’s companion and artistic partner in crime; a pianist, George is also Edith’s accompanist; he is a gay man who makes no real effort to hide it, in a time that still required such things. Ability to actualy play the piano is not necessary. Baritone or tenor. Ensemble.
