List of Characters

From La Grande et la Petite Manœuvre by Arthur Adamov:

 

Erich – The central character; physically disabled, passive, and increasingly dependent on others.

 

The Woman (often seen as the dominating caretaker figure) – Exercises control over Erich under the guise of care and protection.

 

The Instructor / Authority Figure – Represents discipline, order, and the enforcement of the “manoeuvre.”

 

Assistants / Attendants – Secondary figures who help carry out instructions and reinforce control over Erich.

 

Other Minor Figures – Various individuals who appear briefly, contributing to the atmosphere of authority, confusion, and repetition.

 

Note: As is typical in the works of Arthur Adamov, several characters are less individualized and function more as symbolic or functional roles within the structure of the play rather than fully developed realistic personalities.
