Estella
Estella plays Miss Havisham’s beautiful, young protegee, and revenge tool. Estella, is Pip’s unattainable dream throughout the production. He loves her passionately, but, though she sometimes seems to consider him a friend, she is usually cold, cruel, and uninterested in him. As they grow up together, she repeatedly warns him that she has no heart. Estella has a well- mannered, superior yet mysterious like essence to her character. She is portrayed to be a typical English rose; pale complexion, rosy cheeks and lips, beautiful hair etc, and is desired by all men.
Phillip Pirrip nicknamed Pip, an orphan and the protagonist and narrator of Great Expectations. In his childhood, Pip dreamed of becoming a blacksmith like his kind brother-in-law, Joe Gargery. At Satis House however he meets Estella, a contact which destroys his peace of mind. He tells Biddy that he wants to become a gentleman. As a result of Magwitch's anonymous patronage, Pip travels to London and becomes a gentleman. Pip assumes his benefactor is Miss Havisham, and discovering that his true benefactor is a convict shocks him.
Pip is portrayed as a passionate, romantic, determined, young man, who is set on improving himself both morally and socially.
