Characters:

• Susan B. Anthony – Believable to play 30s and up. Stubborn and head-strong; imagine a shaken Coke bottle that gets opened. Unapologetically and unabashedly a feminist, and definitely unafraid of men. Leads with the gut.
• Frederick Douglass – Believable to play 30s and up. Confident, and emotionally controlled; imagine a shaken Coke bottle. Pragmatic, patient, and focused. Hyper aware of his surroundings. Leads with the head.
