Characters
As part of the Damsels in Distress trilogy, RolePlay was written to use the same seven actors as the other two plays in the series. In this play, the characters are:
- Justin Lazenby, about thirty, a software developer
- Julie-Ann Jobson, twenty-three, Justin's somewhat mismatched fiancée
- Paige Petite, twenty-nine, an ex-dancer living in a penthouse upstairs
- Micky Rale, forty, an ex-boxer and Paige's "minder"
- Derek Jobson, late fifties, Julie-Ann's right-wing father
- Dee Jobson, forty-five, Julie-Ann's mother
- Arabella Lazenby, fifties, Justin's stylishly alcoholic mother

Famous quotes containing the word characters:
“The business of a novelist is, in my opinion, to create characters first and foremost, and then to set them in the snarl of the human currents of his time, so that there results an accurate permanent record of a phase of human history.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
“There are characters which are continually creating collisions and nodes for themselves in dramas which nobody is prepared to act with them. Their susceptibilities will clash against objects that remain innocently quiet.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
