ISAAC NEWTON: Young man, in his 20s. Fiercely intelligent, brilliant, witty. Socially awkward/inept/stunted. Honest to a fault. Charismatic. Would be excellent if he had a shock of platinum blonde hair. ISAAC SIDE ONE ISAAC SIDE TWO
ROBERT HOOKE: Older man, in his 40s. Smart, studied, educated. Meticulous. Selfish. Possessing a self-righteous air of entitlement, superiority. Would be excellent if he had a priggish 17th century beard. ROBERT SIDE ONE ROBERT SIDE TWO
CATHERINE: Woman, in her 20s-30s. Naturally beautiful, not so by affectation. Warm, and caring, but wise too. Loyal to a fault, but self-aware. Something inside is hurt, pained, and continuously so. Must appear about ten years older than Isaac. CATHERINE SIDE ONE CATHERINE SIDE TWO
ACTOR/DYING MAN NAMED SAM: Man, older than Isaac. Genuine. Knowing. Simple and Honest. Honesty is paramount. But also mischievous and mysterious. Everyman, but can play “character” well.
