TVU Challenge: Casting Call
Character Name: Lucretia Griswold
TV Show: Penny Dreadful
====
Lucretia Griswold, a new character on Penny Dreadful played by Lucy Griffiths
» WHY I CHOSE LUCY: To me, this name brought to mind a character that is not necessarily modern, and since Lucy played Marian on Robin Hood so absolutely flawlessly she was my first choice for Lucretia. Also, full disclosure, she's my first choice for everything because I love her and she's perfect. She can play sweet and innocent but also incredibly strong and independent, and I think her look is perfect for a show like Penny DreadfulI'm saying she's pale, okay?
» ON THE CHARACTER: Lucretia Griswold was never content to stand still and look pretty like her contemporaries, and after a disastrous meeting with the man her father would have her marry, she ran off and away from her priviledged and sheltered life. On her adventures (which, amazingly for a single girl in Victorian London, do NOT involve prositution) she meets and befriends John Clare, an interesting man whose physical deformities mask a sweet and tender soul.
