The Poor & Destitute

The ensemble of our players will make up the poor, the beggar class. Through oppression, men, like the Judge and the Beadle, have forced others into this class, people like Benjamin Barker, Lucy, and Mrs. Lovett. 

These people should be a part of the 'unwashed masses.' Often as a part of their oppression they have been abused and imprisoned, their infirmities often stretch beyond tattered clothes, and include physical ailments.
