Storyline: Many years ago β in a time before any Europeans had ever encroached on their lands β the Comanche people had a well defined society and gender norms. SKULLS is the story of what happens when one young woman challenges the status quo to become a warrior.
Roles:
[Kee]
F 19-19 Cast:
Female; 19 years old; Comanche. Her name, βKeeβ, means βnoβ in Comanche. A name she has earned by perpetually refusing to do as
she is told her entire life. Kee is very close to her younger brother, Taabe, who is being groomed as a leader. As capable as any young
man in the tribe, Kee has always been a teacher and source of inspiration for Taabe. In the Comanche way β she is βPatsiβ β the elder
sister that has helped to shape him. Kee is a truth teller and has insight that others do not. A tomboy, she wants to prove herself in the
masculine world of the Comanche. When danger threatens them all β Kee sets out to prove that she is as capable as any young warrior.
[Taabe]
M 17-17 Cast:
Male; 17 years old (seeking 18 to play younger); Comanche. Taabeβs name means βSunβ, like the star in the sky β which lets you know
the tribeβs expectations for him β he is being groomed to be a Chief one day. Having relied on the council of his older sister, Kee, his
βPatsiβ for his entire life. Taabe has just had a taste of success in one of his first big hunts. As he is coming of age and fresh off of his
first triumph, he feels that heβs now a leader/in charge and no longer needs Kee β which causes the first rift in their very close
relationship.
