Rosy (the Gaoler's daughter)

The Gaoler's daughter. 16-17 years old; pretty, sweet, kind, innocent and petite. She has a good Mezzo Soprano belt. Good dancer.

Lady Magistrate

Totally mad which is bizarrely unsettling. To the smaller children in the audience she may even seem frightening. She wears an overly large and outrageous wig and she may well be size 16 plus. Strong Operatic Soprano.

Clerk (of the Court)

We have often doubled him with the Chief Weasel. He is tall, thin, gaunt with a sallow complexion with piercing eyes. High Baritone. Good dancer/mover.

Aunt (the Washerwoman)

Often doubles with Lady Magistrate. Large, cuddly, kind and a little eccentric. Soprano. Basic movement skills.

Policeman

A pantomime law enforcement agent. Any size, stupid and self important. Baritone.

The Horse

Typical pantomime horse, two actors in a bright colourful horse skin. Non- singing role.
