Character Descriptions:
Alan Strang (Male, 18-23)
A disturbed young man with a passionate fascination for horses, Alan is deeply complex, struggling with his faith, family expectations, and his own desires. The role requires vulnerability, intensity, and raw emotional expression.
Dr. Martin Dysart (Male, 40s-60s)
A psychiatrist who takes on Alan's case, Dysart is deeply introspective, questioning the meaning of passion, sanity, and normalcy as he unravels Alan's psyche. A commanding presence with a strong sense of empathy and introspection.
Jill Mason (Female, 18-23)
A free-spirited young woman who works at the stables and befriends Alan. Jill is open, curious, and represents a sense of liberation to Alan.
Frank Strang (Male, 40s-50s)
Alan's strict and repressed father. He is a conservative figure whose rigid beliefs clash with Alan's emerging independence.
Dora Strang (Female, 40s-50s)
Alan's deeply religious mother. Dora is nurturing but holds strong, often conflicting beliefs that shape Alan's understanding of the world.
Hesther Salomon (Female, 30s-50s)
A magistrate and friend of Dysart. She is compassionate and believes in Alan's potential for recovery.
Horsemen/Nurses (Male/Female, 20s-30s)
