Show Description: Elyot and Amanda, once married and now honeymooning with new spouses at the same hotel, meet by chance, reignite the old spark and impulsively elope. After days of being reunited, they again find their fiery romance alternating between passions of love and anger. Their aggrieved spouses appear and a roundelay of affiliations ensues as the women first stick together, then apart, and new partnerships are formed.
Characters:
-
AMANDA PRYNNE (female, playing age 30–45*) — Charming, witty, impulsive, and fiercely independent. Sharp-tongued and passionate. Her volatile relationship with Elyot drives the play. Upper class British accent required.
-
ELYOT CHASE (male, playing age 30–45*) — Handsome, charismatic, and quick-witted. Sophisticated but prone to jealousy and emotional outbursts. Deeply drawn to Amanda. Upper class British accent required.
-
SIBYL CHASE (female, playing age 20–35*) — Elyot's new wife. Attractive, refined, and somewhat naïve — but gradually reveals a stronger, more assertive side. Upper class British accent required.
-
VICTOR PRYNNE (male, playing age 30–50*) — Amanda's new husband. Practical, dependable, and conventional. Struggles to understand the passionate nature of Amanda and Elyot. Solid comic role. Upper class British accent required.
-
LOUISE (female, playing age 30–60*) — A French maid. Efficient, observant, and quietly humorous. Smaller role providing comic relief as an amused witness to the chaos. French accent required, only speaks French.
