  Character Profiles

  K. – (m/f – originally male but all actors are asked to audition and try for K.) The hero and protagonist of the play. It is K.’s trial. K was the ambitious, successful Chief Clerk of the Bank before his untimely arrest one morning for no reason. He is a shrewd, more-competent-than-kind, thirty-year-old man who slides into desperation while trying to grapple with an all-powerful Court and an invisible Law.

  Huld – (m/f) K.’s fustian advocate who provides precious little in the way of action and far too much in the way of anecdote. He is a verbose hypochondriac who is unhelpful to all of his clients. He is a key part of K.’s trial, representing the enigmatic reality of the judicial system in which he works.

  Leni – (f) She is Huld’s nurse and is instantly attracted to Joseph K.. She soon becomes his lover. Apparently, she finds accused men extremely attractive – the fact of their indictment makes them irresistible to her. She is open and frank with her feelings and desires, and often objectified by her employer, Huld.

  Block – (m/f) Block, the Tradesman, is another accused man and client of Huld. His case is five years old, and he is but a shadow of the prosperous man he once was. All his time, energy, and resources are now devoted to his case. Although he has hired hack lawyers on the side, he is completely and pathetically subservient to Huld with whom he now lives. He represents a presage of what K. could become.

  Titorelli – (m/f) Titorelli, the Painter, inherited the position of Court Painter from his father. He knows a great deal about the comings and goings of the Court’s lowest level. He offers to help K., and manages to unload a few identical landscape paintings on the accused man. He is expressive, opportunistic and strange.

  Guard 1 – (m/f) One of the two officers who arrest Joseph K. one morning. They both carry out the duty that they are required to do, neither disclose K.’s crime to him. They take some clothes belonging to K. and are later reprimanded for the crime once K. has informed the authorities. Willem/William is the younger of the two, he begs K. to let him go as he claims to have a fiancée waiting for him.

  Guard 2 – (m/f) One of the two officers who arrest Joseph K. one morning. They both carry out the duty that they are required to do, neither disclose K.’s crime to him. They take some clothes belonging to K. and are later reprimanded for the crime once K. has informed the authorities. Franz/Frank is the older of the two guards and may have had a run in with the law in his youth.
