7 roles
SARA is an admirably smart and brave 17-year-old. She is adventurous, ambitious, and diligent. It is her story that provides the play with its spine; we basically follow her from beginning to end. As a teenager, she is prone to quarrels with…
MATT, her brother, who is a couple of years younger, and cares nothing for the past. He is very happy to have finally outgrown his older sister. A funny character, and a sympathetically-flawed foil to his near-perfect sister. However, Matt is not a pseudo-Californian who says “dude.” He and Sara are whisked into the Dark Ages by…

THE GREEN KNIGHT, a big, frightening, conceited knight who truly believes that Might makes Right. He relishes doing battle with…

DAGONET, a comical knight who wields a battle-ax, and…
DYNADAN, an even more comical knight who wields a morning star (in reality, a heavy ball set with spikes, either attached to a staff or suspended by one from a chain).
