Casting Note (from the playwright): The actors are inhabiting the "idea" of the iconic characters and can be cast in any number of ways. The actors are, after all, only spirits—which, as the play states, are around us all the time, guiding our way. Age, ethnicity and gender are all up for grabs in the casting, as is the suggestion of the break-down of roles. SHERLOCK HOLMES

Casting Note (from the playwright): Cassie and Stella should look like sisters and be of similar builds, but they need not look like identical twins. They look different, have different blood types, and have therefore always assumed themselves fraternal. The characters should reflect a more and more diverse America. SEEKING:
STELLA (female, early 30s)
• Cassie's twin sister. Former NASA colony architect, her mouth moves quickly to catch up with her even faster brain, her thoughts zigzag like tracing a constellation. She is still deeply heartbroken she will never go to space, harbors secrets and resentment as she struggles to welcome her sister into her new life. Born first. CASSIE (female, early 30s)
• Stella's twin sister. NASA botanist, physically strong, seems put together in the midst of all her success, but inside is doubtful and falling apart. Overwhelmed by the deeply human experience she is having since landing back on Earth. She digs and uproots. Looking for a way to blow up her life, as well as looking for a way to get closer to her sister. Born second. BRYAN (male, mid 30s)
• Stella's fiancé?
. A member of the populist political movement Earth Advocates, laid back, kind, emotionally open, strong, still grieving the loss of his brother, struggling with the wall Stella has built around herself. A different racial, ethnic, or cultural background than Cassie and Stella. MARY JANE MARY JANE
• A woman in her 30s
RUTHIE / TENKEI
(female, 60s or 70s)
• A building superintendent / A Buddhist nun
SHERRY / DR. TOROS
(female, 40s or 50s)
• A nurse / A pediatric intensivist
BRIANNE / CHAYA
(female, 30s or early 40s)
• A Facebook friend / A Hasidic woman
AMELIA / KAT
(female, 20s)
• Sherry's niece, a college student / A music therapist
NETTA & RU RUBY
(female, 20-30)
• Shame-free sex worker, root worker, and hoodoo practitioner. Her magic has been failing her ever since her mother, Mama Mama, died. NETTA (female, 20-30)
• African American, Ruby's play-sister. Orphaned by a shameful incident, Netta is determined to rise above her station and be a married member of the best church in Montgomery. LUKE (male, 20-30)
• African American, Netta's fiancé. Good-hearted guy, serial cheats, often with Ruby. He causes friction between Netta and Ruby. EUNICE (female, 40s-50s)
• African American, Doc's second wife.
Married Doc after he killed his first wife. New in town. Member of Women's Committee at the best church in Montgomery.
