Darlene – a middle-aged Baptist woman and former children’s church teacher. Except now that her only son is dead, she begins to reinvent herself into someone much darker.

Charlene – she’s slimmer and sleeker than her twin sister. She prides herself on her appearance. She’s very business-like, professional, put-together and takes care of (or perhaps controls) the people closest to her.
David – husband to Darlene, a plumber, who owns his own business and makes good money. He loves to talk to strangers, but he wasn’t the most comfortable father. He’s a good man, but perhaps he tries too hard to behave in an acceptable way.

Bill – husband to Charlene, an architect, who started his career late in life. He’s talented but not quite as driven as Charlene.

Brother George – a former rock climber, famous for free solo climbing (climbing without a rope), turned Benedictine Monk. He’s lost something of himself as a monk that he found in rock climbing.

Guitarist – a Spanish guitar player who underscores the magical moments in the play, as well as transitions and ambient noises. The music provided is integral to the tone of the play. However, if a guitarist is not possible, canned music could be used.
