Seeking:
LIZZIE- always right. Very smart, sees through everyone’s BS except her own. Not actually the oldest sister, but those vibes. (The playwright suggests this role be played by a plus-sized actress.)

JANE- actually the oldest. Kind of soft, very pretty but has been let down a lot so she’s trying really hard to be aloof and less affected by things. She also has a deep boiling pit of rage that
will drag her to the center of the earth if she gets too close.

KITTY- Perpetual middle child, attempting to balance the scales and prevent anyone from jumping off a cliff. Would always rather be in a barn.

LYDIA- little bit of a brat and also man-crazy. Hasn’t had any bad experiences, hasn’t had any experiences period but is desperate for attention and a man. She doesn’t fully understand that
feeling but that’s what’s going on.

MARY- loner, loves botany and music but everyone hates her singing and doesn’t understand the botany stuff. Genuinely suffers from chronic migraines, but this emphasizes her out of the
loop status. Prefers rules to people.

CHARLOTTE- Lizzie’s best friend, who is less cool than Lizzie thinks.

GEORGIANA- Darcy’s sister, kind of a mean girl.
