Story synopsis: "Cigar"; revolves around a beautiful Spanish
woman (Celestina), who has captivated three young males
(Alfonso), (Blas), and (Calisto), when they were only thirteen
to fourteen years old. The majority of the story follows all
three males, who go out of their way to catch a glimpse of
Celestina. The catalyst, in which has captivated the four males,
revolves around one reason alone, Celestina smokes cigars. Not
because she merely smokes them, but the way she smokes them,
which involves beautiful hand gestures, and integrity that
upholds her own way. The three males, soon after finding out she
smokes cigar, go on their own adventures, to figure out the
world of cigars, and why such a beautiful woman like Celestina
has begun to smoke them. One large obstacle has halted the three
young males, and this obstacle is a man (Timoteo), who has
recently attached himself to Celestina. Unfortunately, for the
three young males, the adventure will not be an easy one.
Rolesswanted to fill: Celestina -- Female / Race: Latin / Age:
20-22
--
Celestina, is a tall, slender, beautiful woman, who has not much
care for the world around her. She takes long walks, and minds
her own business.
Alfonso -- Male / Race: Latin / Age: 13-15
--
Alfonso is the 'leader' of his friends, Blas and Calisto.
He is the one who sets them off for the adventure, in the
unknown world of cigars, and the unbelievably hard task of
trying to avoid Timoteo.
Blas -- Male / Race: Latin / Age: 13-15
--
Blas is the follower, and has only recently joined the group. He
does what is told, and similar to his love, Celestina, has no
care of the world around him.
Calisto -- Male / Race: Latin / Age: 13-15
--
Calisto is the one, who most definitely loves Celestina the
most, and 'pushes the envelope' as some would say, to catch a
glimpse, think, and even talk to her.
