| Character Ages | Role |
|---|---|
| Demon of Darkness 20’s and up male identifying | The truest force of all evil in pantoland/Wonderland. The Demon of Darkness is selfish, entitled and all around bad. The opposite of Fairy Fuchsia, his arch nemesis, the Demon of Darkness will win at any cost. |
| Lord Blanchard 20’s - 30’s female identifying | Lord Blanchard is Prince Argent’s best friend and the White Queen’s top advisor. He gives the best advice and has the most charming smile. A smart and sweet character who can sweep even the grouchiest queen off their feet. |
| Princess Diamond 20’s-30’s female identifying | Princess Diamond is a kind, ambitious and politically savvy princess, cousin to the Queen of Hearts. Not one to be afraid of conflict, she will roll up her sleeves and dive in head first to get the job done. She is selfless and will always put others' needs before her own. |
| March Hare 20’s and up any | A very silly and trusty character who likes to go with the flow. A happy part of the motley Tea Crew, pulling pranks and making silly jokes left and right. March Hare is the moral compass of the Tea Threesome. |

COVID-19 Precautions
The Royal Canadian Theatre Company will be following Provincial Health guidelines with three approaches:
- Practising Social Distancing:
- All seating in the green room will be socially distanced.
- There are physically distanced circles in the actual audition room for you to keep your distance for yourself or if auditioning with a partner.
- Using the Outdoors:
- Because people will be congregated in our green room, we will be opening our garage door to give more space and fresh air to all applicants.
- Masks and hand sanitizer:
- We do recommend everyone coming to the audition wears a mask in the green room as that will be the busiest area.
- We have both hand sanitizer and an area to wash your hands whenever needed.
