Casting Details: 6M/5W
Hercule Poirot (Male-presenting / late 40s - early 70s) - Belgium. Fiercely intelligent, quirky, probing, agile, with a delicate wit and old-world European charm. Should be able to take the audience into his confidence immediately. Bouc (Male-presenting / late 40s - early 70s) - Belgium. Charming and sophisticated, with a heavy dose of histrionics when he gets upset. Mary Debenham (Female-presenting / late 20s - late 40s) - English. Cool, calm, intelligent. Her eyes are always probing the other characters, especially Poirot. Hector MacQueen (Male-presenting / late 20s - late 40s) - American. Terrifically nervous and slightly insufferable. The type of person who always feels guilty even when they’re 100% innocent. Michel (Male-presenting / mid 30s - mid 50s) - French. Happy in his job; capable, slightly proud; his strength is being an enigma Princess Dragomiroff (Female-presenting / early 50s - mid 70s) - Russian. Regal, refined, old-world aristocracy. The type of presence that inspires genuflection. She doesn't move fast or say much because she doesn't have to. Greta Ohlsson (Female-presenting / late 20s - late 50s) - Swedish. Devout and devoted; there is a conspicuous humility to her; wears her faith on her sleeve. Countess Andrenyi (Female-presenting / late 20s - early 30s) - Hungarian. Quiet, elegant, with a constant air of mystery to her. Helen Hubbard (Female-presenting / late 40s - early 60s) - American. Bold, brassy, constantly in charge. She is the center of attention even when she's trying to blend in. Colonel Arbuthnot (Male-presenting / late 20s - early 40s) - Scottish. Proud, dignified, short-tempered and strong-minded. Suspiciously protective of Mary Debenham. Samuel Ratchett (Male-presenting / early 40s - early 60s) - American. Gauche, brash, repugnant, always with an undercurrent of intimidation. You should feel uneasy about him from the moment you lay eyes on him. |
