The Emperor's New Clothes Show Characters

Here is my royal employer, Vincent the Vain. He's really not bad to work for, but he has one major personality flaw: he's very insecure about his appearance. (I hear there's a queen somewhere who has the same problem - that poor mirror!)

Quotes: "141, 762...141,763..141,764 and 141,765 suits of clothes...and not one of them unique. Oh how sad it makes me to see outfit 88,001 has the exact belt buckle as outfit 409. And number 22 is the same shade of lavender as number 16,111."

"Go away, I am not coming out of my dressing room!"

"Jester! Whenever they are weary, you shall entertain them. A handstand or two... a tune on your lute...juggling small appliances."

Notes: Mark Leahy (above) portrayed the handsome but insecure Emperor, Vincent the Vain.

For the show, Mark added white polka dots to his suit of long red pajamas. As a result, the emperor's "clothes" looked even more hilarious than ever!
