DESCRIPTION
The Cast George Henderson- County Attorney Henry Peters- Sheriff Lewis Hale- A neighboring farmer Mrs. Peters- Wife of Sheriff Mrs. Hale- Wife of the farmer John Wright- Deceased man Mrs. Wright- Accused murderess Each cast member has a different and unique style which I find very important to the overall look of the play. When the audience is introduced to each character they can see their personality through their clothes immediately. The men in this play are going to all being wearing a “uniform” so to say. The Attorney will be in very business attire, where as the Sheriff will be in uniform and the Farmer in his everyday clothes. John Wright will be in his house clothes, very relaxed. The women in the play are a totally different story from the men. Mrs. Peters will be looking very elegant and feminine, while Mrs. Hale will be in relaxed pants and a shirt. She is the famers wife after all, she likes the comfortable look. Mrs. Wright will be thought of to be in her housecoat. Also since this play takes place in the dead of winter, all of them will be wearing coats and other winter accessories.TRANSCRIPT
