What to have ready: two contrasting monologues each under 2 minutes in length, a short song to be sung acapella.
Roles Available:
PRINCESS MARY TUDOR – King Henry’s sister is every bit a Tudor. Imperious, passionate and temperamental, she is a perfect foil for her brother the King.
CHARLES BRANDON – Captain of the King’s guard. Brave, insolent, and devil may care, Charles doesn’t take anything from anybody-not even the woman he loves. *fighting role
DUKE OF BUCKINGHAM – The Kings chief advisor. Jaded, cruel and scheming, he cares for nothing so much as his own treasury.
ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY- Nervous and diplomatic. He hates being the bearer of bad news…especially when it could get him executed.
HERALD – King Henrys royal announcer. He can be self important and vain, but he’s a good man with an eye for the ladies.
MAG- A scullery maid. Mag is flirtatious with the Herald, but fears the nobles.
KING LOUIS XII – King of France. A child in a mans body. He is spoiled and petulant, but imagines himself and ardent lover.
DUKE DeLOUNGVILLE- Kings bodyguard and the real power behind the throne. Cool, swaggering and superior, he will stop at nothing to further the needs of France. *fighting role
ANCEL – The Dukes bitter, brooding English hating henchman. *fighting role
LADY MARGARET – French mistress of propriety. It is her task to turn and English Princess into a French Queen.
LADY DOMINIQUE – A silly, gossiping French lady in waiting.
LADY ANNE BOLEYN – An English noble living in the French court. Beautiful, but jaded and sarcastic, her time there has given her all the French vices and none of its virtues.
