Dame Thyme: A poor farmer. It's tough raising beets and a son all on your own! The Dame is the comic relief and the link between the audience and the show. If you are quick witted & good  a making little improved jokes with the audience, this is the part for you! (Played by a male 18+)

Princess Aurora: The Sleeping Beauty. She is our princess who is excited for her 18th Birthday Party, but is not happy that her parents never let her go anywhere or do anything.

Sage & Onion:  The comic villains. These are two characters, but they are always together. Brothers that are new to town and desperately trying to earn some money. They will do anything to get a paycheck and team up with the evil Zendora to do her bidding. However, they are a few sandwiches short of a picnic, so things never seem to go right. *These characters will have lots of room to ad-lib and play off of each other. (Played by Male or Female 16+)
