Major-General Stanley:
A one star-general in the British Army, Major-General Stanley is the
protector of many young women, his wards. Must have excellent
diction!
The
Pirate King:
A largely unsuccessful commander, the pirate king, although a
flamboyant braggart, is too tender-hearted to do what pirates are
supposed to do. Comedic and must move well.
Samuel:
The pirate king's lieutenant
Frederic:
A pirate trainee, Frederic was apprenticed to the pirates by
mistake. He is a noble young man who falls in love with Mabel but
puts his sense of duty above everything else, including love.
Sergeant of Police:
The leader of a bumbling squad of policemen, the good-natured
sergeant of police is committed to stopping the pirates. Good mover.
Mabel:
Major-General Stanley's youngest ward, quickly falls in love with
Frederic. Classic ingenue, strong singer.
Edith:
Another of Major-General Stanley’s daughters
Kate:
Another of Major-General Stanley's daughters
Isabel:
Another of Major-General Stanley's daughters
Ruth:
A pirate maid-of-all-work and Frederic’s nursery maid, Ruth
mistakenly bound Frederic to a pirate instead of a pilot. She is in
love with Frederic and feels betrays when he falls in love with
Mabel. Very comedic role.
