However, both "performers" and "actors" do not work, as we do not anticipate hiring performers or actors. I think the word "character" is most neutral, and allows for both options. >> >> Kevin, does the word "characters" address your concern as well? > > Being a little bit pedantic (sorry), ‘character’ is the role that a ‘performer’ plays. As I said, I am comfortable with whatever, my (slight) concern was only the subtle suggestion, implied in ‘protagonist’ that there was only one person involved. I think "characters" is good. However, I don't feel strongly about the term used. Best, ~Shawn
