Personages/Characters

Flounes
    The Angels of this world. These characters, cloaked in browns and ochre's, are child-like; inquisitive, curious and full of energy. They are sometimes referred to as the "Nasty Clowns" due to their unrefined emotional states, and yet they are central to the strings that make up the universal tapestry.
The Devils
    The Invaders of this world. Cloaked in reds, the Devils are the spirit of disobedience.
Corporation
    The Slaves of this world. Cloaked in blues, Coroporation has their destinies controlled for them. (They are the house troup). Together they conjure the fantastical displays of dreams, wants and needs.
Madame Corporation
    Queen of the Flounes (played by France La Bonté), she is the epitome of control reigning supreme over the universe. She rules over Corporation with the Grant Chamberlain.
Grant Chamberlain
    The Grant Chamberlain (Brian Dewhurst) is the Ringmistresses' (Madame Corporation's) right-hand man. Together they control the destinies of all within the world of the Flounes.
Everyman (Clown)
    Along for the journey is a man dressed in a suit who represents any one of us - Mr. or Ms. Everybody (David Shiner). He shows us our most profound fears and searches for authenticity and sincerity. Using humor he asks many questions but the answers are hard to deal with. The world is full of illusion and lies; of emotions - love, hate, conflict and joy. He too is a trespasser in this world of the "Flounes" as he Experiences these emotions and learns about life.
