A homeless woman. Dramatic. Hot tempered. Engaging. Deceptive. Complicated. Unstable. Although Celia has erratic mood swings and a short temper, there must always be something endearing and compelling about her. [Note: When Celia first appears, she speaks in a strange street dialect. Later on, the audience will discover that she is a well-educated woman and has put on this dialect as a strategy for survival on the streets. The dialect is a combination of how she’s heard other people around her speak and how she imagines street hustlers speak.]
