Characters are an important part of all plays. Let’s face it, without characters, there would be no play! Here is a list of all the characters from Her Sun Valley Story, and a description of each one:
Margy Manning: A photographer. She works for Tomorrow’s Fashions Today magazine. She is a kind and creative person, though her stubborn, feisty streak can often get the best of her.
Bill O’Brien: A newspaperman. Is described in the script as having a “charming, slightly full of himself air about him”.
George Walton: Editor-In-Chief of Tomorrow’s Fashions Today magazine. He’s also Margy’s boyfriend. A complete workaholic, he has trouble focusing on other people’s thoughts and feelings.
Miss Holden: George’s secretary. A complete ditz who never seems to know what’s going on, she’s definitely the Marilyn Monroe type.
Ellen: Margy’s best friend. A good friend with a heart of gold, she always urges Margy to go after what she wants.
