MADAME ARMFELDT, female, 60 plus. Imperious, regal; practical and worldly-wise. Sharp sense of humor. Deep alto voice with good musicality and finesse with lyrics.
DESIREE ARMFELDT, female, 40s. Glamorous actress; seductive and fascinating, with a star presence and a mischievous wit. Her good humor and ribald spirit usually conceal the vulnerable romantic yearning still present underneath—but not always. Mezzo; sings “Send in the Clowns.”
FREDRIKA ARMFELDT, female, 18 plus to play mid teens. A very poised young girl. Petite, inquisitive and perceptive. Light, clear singing voice. Ability to play piano a plus.
