“BAD KREYOL” – by Dominique Morisseau

October 9-11, 2026

CHARACTERS

• SIMONE – [pronounced See’MOAN] – Haitian American woman, NO ACCENT, mid thirties, freethinking, smart, social justice obsessed, and a bit wayward. Her heart is in the right place, but she can sometimes miss the mark with her intentions. She is Haitian by blood, but very Black American from-the-burbs by culture. She wants to be down for her people, but also feels disconnected from them. She is often the butt of other folks’ jokes, especially her cousin Gigi, and as such has learned how to be neutral and not take herself too seriously. Somewhere deep inside is a broken bird looking for restoration.

• GIGI – [pronounced Zhee’ZHEE] – Haitian woman, ACCENT NEEDED, late thirties, bourgeois, intelligent, proud, and bossy. She works in international trading and is oftentimes in sheer business mode. She takes herself too seriously and, unlike Simone, does not have the easewith which to laugh at herself. She is Haitian-born with American exposure and influence. Her clipped nature can seem rude, but to Gigi, this is just who people are. Somewhere deep inside is a loving bird that refuses to be vulnerable at all costs.

• PITA – [pronounced Pee’TAH] – Haitian man, ACCENT NEEDED, mid thirties, vibrant, full of spirit, and easy to love. He identifies with Haiti’s Queer community, but is not yet openly a part of it. He loves life and loves Haiti in all of its beautiful contradictions and is proud of his upbringing and survival story. He is also the housekeepinhelp for Gigi, though he would never be reduced to being anyone’s “maid.” In Haiti, this role is far more complicated, and Pita will

remind you of that. Somewhere, his revolution is waiting for him.

• LOVELIE – [pronounced Low’VLEE] – Haitian woman, ACCENT NEEDED, late twenties/early thirties, quiet, strong, mysterious. She is a former prostitute turned seamstress and is seeking her independence. She is no victim. She is the picture of defiant resilience.

• THOMAS – [pronounced Toe’MAS] – Haitian American man, ACCENT NEEDED, late thirties/early forties, affluent, bourgeois, and impersonal. He is an international trades businessman and embodies all of the tropes of foreign executive power, a shark nature

where self-preservation trumps all
