Feb 09, 2011 19:45

On a roll of parchment, large and stained with quill's ink, a long add is visible, posted on the common room's bulletin board.
The Death of Agripinna
Dramatis Personae
TIBERIUS, emperor of Rome. 
SEJANUS, Tiberius' favorite courtier and head of the Praetorian guard. 
NERVA, senator, the Emperor's confidante.
TERENTIUS, Sejanus' confidante. 
AGRIPPINA, Germanicus' widow. 
CORNELIA, her confidante.
LIVILLA, sister to Germanicus et the Emperor's sister in law. 
FURNIE, her confidante.
GUARDS.

Setting: Rome, a room in Tiberius' palace.

Synopsis: These are dark times for Rome: the Republic has fallen, Tiberius rules over a wobbling senate. The brilliant Caesar Germanicus, hero of the Rhine campaigns and favored by the people, has been assassinated. His widow plots revenge, enlisting the help of Tiberius' greatest confidante, Sejanus. Little does she know that the threat also comes from unseen enemies and traitors, from Livilla, whom Sejanus secretly supports.

ACTORS AND STAGE HANDS WANTED, PLEASE SEE MONSIEUR DE BERGERAC.
Cyrano can easily be identified, his thrice-feathered hat on the table, his hand busy as he scratches away on a monologue, or a scene, perhaps, with a rather conspicuous quill.

[OOC: So, as mentioned a while ago on the ooc community, opening rounds for the theater-oriented plot! Feel free to poke Cyrano for a part, to lend a hand, or simply to say hello! As discussed before, rehearsals will very likely be handwaved, though we might do a few rehearsal break mingler posts. And we can expect the play-related mingler to show up some time this summer, I think, if that works with all those involved. ^^]
