While the play draws some events from the life of Monica Lewinsky, the events portrayed are entirely fictional. The character Monica is new, and should be explored as a new character. Productions are encouraged to cast actors who do not resemble Ms. Lewinsky, and the actor playing Monica should not attempt to do an impression of Ms. Lewinsky's physicality or voice. If the production is interested in doubling, the roles of The Woman and The Lover can be played by the same actor, as can the roles of The Expat and The Yuppy. All efforts should be undertaken to assemble a cast that is racially diverse, and the inclusion of actors with disabilities is strongly encouraged.
