Characters

Place & Time: Set in a catholic school (Bronx, NY) - 1964

Sister Aloysius: The head nun and principal of St Nicholas School. Caucasian, she is in her 50's - 60's. This school, the students and the nuns are "her" domain which she rules absolutely - keeping within the boundaries that society set for women in the 1960's. She needs to be able to intimidate with a glance but acquiesce (grudgingly or not) with grace.

Father Flynn: A new priest. Articulate and personable. Caucasian, he can be anywhere from his 20's to early 40's. He needs be able to walk the line of accepting his power as a man in the world and balance that with the humility expected of a man of God.

Sister James: A young nun. An enthusiastic but inexperienced teacher. Ethnicity Open, she should be young and appear naive, but certainly not unintelligent.

Mrs. Muller: The mother of Donald Muller. African American - Old/Young enough to have a teenage son. She is a pragmatic woman who accepts her son, no matter what.
