A : She is a very old woman in her 90s. She is thin, autocratic, proud, and wealthy. She also has a mild case of Alzheimer's disease.
B : B is a 52-year-old version of A, to whom she is the hired caretaker. She is markedly cynical about life. Although she doesn't enjoy working for A, she learns much from her.
C : C is a 26-year-old version of B. She is present on behalf of A's law firm, because A has neglected paperwork, payments, and such. She has all of youth's common self-assurance.
The Boy : The son of the three women, he does not play a speaking role but is the subject of much discussion among them. A falling-out between the son and his mother(s) is the cause of much of A and B's despair.
