I did play for theater and I roughly remember the plot but Ichabod Crane was made fun of often and looked on by others as “weird”. He was a school teacher trying to impress a pretty woman in the town. He was very afraid although he acted tough. He was merely afraid of his own footsteps at times. I think mostly explaining his character is good because that it basically the beginning plot haha
