Breakdown:
| Role Name | Gender | Ethnicity | Age Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Robbie Turner | Male | Caucasian | 20-25 | Robbie Turner, the kitchen maid’s son in the Tallis family. He studies medicine in college to become a doctor. The Tallis family pays his tuition because they treat him like their own son. Robbie is madly in love with Cecilia Tallis, the older daughter of the house. Although being treated well, he still lives with his mother in a small house away from the mansion. Therefore, deep down inside, he feels that they never accept and recognize him as their equal. That’s why he wants to become a doctor, a higher-class occupation than a gardener. His social status and lack of self-esteem are the major obstacles of their relationship. He once calls Cecilia “daughter of my mother’s employers”. |
| Cecilia Tallis | Female | Caucasian | 20-25 | Cecilia Tallis, the older daughter in the family, is a sophisticated and sensitive upper-class young lady. She grew up with Robbie together. She loves him and is very aware of Robbie’s inner struggles of his identity being a servant. She also blames him for withholding his affections for too long, which makes her feel like she is the one who doesn’t deserve him. |
