Characters
- Casting: 1M, 2F
AMELIA - a woman, Joshua's wife, frustrated by all of the little things, way past grand gestures, and filled with a rage she doesn't like
DEATH - a woman, busy, fond of making an entrance, annoyed when her precious time is wasted
CHORUS - a group of people with a lot of inside information, a knack for moving and speaking in unison, and a penchant for honesty regardless of the circumstances. Maybe they're all immortal like Joshua. Maybe they're all injured in weird ways. But they're still upbeat.
