CHARACTERS

Vera Claythorne (F - Mid 20s) – She is strong but occasionally succumbs to her nerves and is particularly affected by the poem about the “Ten Little Soldiers.” She is accused of causing the death of a boy she cared for as a nanny.

 

Philip Lombard (M or F - Late 20s to Early 30s) – A mysterious, confident, adventurer, Lombard is bolder and wittier than most of the other characters and has a strong connection with Vera, as well, which harms and helps at the end. Lombard abandoned 21 people in the jungle to save his own life.

 

Blore - (M - 40+) – A former police inspector coming to the island undercover but is quickly discovered, which harms a supposed innocence in the eyes of the others. Blore makes mistakes throughout the play and believes guilt of perhaps the wrong people. Blore gave misleading testimony in court causing an innocent man to die in prison.

 

Wargrave - (M or F - 60+) – An acting leader of the group, organizing a plan of attack and getting as much info about the circumstances as can be had. Wargrave has suspicions about who the murderer may be but refrains from revealing them when possible. As a Judge, Wargrave takes charge but struggles with a dark past and tendencies, having given the death penalty to a defendant whom a trial jury believed to be innocent.

 

Dr. Armstrong - (M or F 45+) – A target for suspicion right off the bat because of extensive medical knowledge. Armstrong is a timid recovering alcoholic who operated on a patient while intoxicated, causing her death. Although professionally successful, the doctor can be incredibly gullible.

 

Emily Brent - (F - 40+) – One of the few characters that feels no guilt about the crimes that she was accused of. She is unapologetically religious and believes the others will have to face judgment for their sins. She turned out a serving girl after finding out she was pregnant out of wedlock, and the girl committed suicide.

 

Rogers - (M 35 - 55) – As the butler, Rogers serves the rest of the group and even continues his duties as long as he can. He is very concerned about his spouse revealing information about their crime.

 

Mrs. Rogers - (M or F - 25-50) - Rogers’ Spouse. Frightened and in much distress. The Rogers' are accused of allowing a woman in their care to die unaided.

 

Anthony Marston - (M - 20s) - A rich and spoiled young man. Marston likes to drive recklessly and seems to lack a conscience. He killed two small children in a car accident caused by his speeding, but shows no remorse.

 

General MacKenzie - (M - 65+) - An older guest, MacKenzie is one of the first guests that doesn’t become distraught when the deaths are out in the open. He gives in and resigns himself to death early on and speaks of joining his dead wife, whose lover died while under his command in WWI.

 

Fred Naracott - (M or F - Any Age) - Island caretaker, brings food to the island, and transports the guests to and from the mainland.

 

And Then There Were None is a non-equity no-pay production.
