UNDERSTUDY [Visual Novel]
Christian Cruz for Tristan Blair
A junior theater minor, cast as Macbeth. Easygoing and friendly, but doesn't try very hard at anything because he comes from money and knows he'll have an easy ride in life. However, he has a vindictive side when betrayed.
Voice: Medium to medium-low, easygoing and friendly but capable of sounding serious and dramatic as Macbeth.
Actor must be capable of performing Tristan in both his normal speaking voice and in the role of Macbeth, which requires reading Shakespearean dialogue.

(friendly, light flirtation) "Hey, what do you think? Wouldn't I make a great Macbeth? And you'd be a perfect Lady Mac. If we were both cast, we'd be, like, the ultimate power couple!"
(heartbroken, upset) "I liked you. I trusted you. And now I realize... From the very start, you've been manipulating me. Did you ever even have feelings for me? Has all of it been a lie?"
(acting as Macbeth- Act 2 Scene 1) "Is this a dagger which I see before me, The handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee. I have thee not, and yet I see thee still. Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible To feeling as to sight? Or art thou but A dagger of the mind, a false creation Proceeding from the heat-oppressèd brain?"
