Example
<castGroup rend="braced">
 <castItem>
  <role>Walter</role>
  <actor>Mr Frank Hall</actor>
 </castItem>
 <castItem>
  <role>Hans</role>
  <actor>Mr F.W. Irish</actor>
 </castItem>
 <roleDesc>friends of Mathias</roleDesc>
</castGroup>
Note
The rend attribute may be used, as here, to indicate whether the grouping is indicated by a brace, whitespace, font change, etc.
Note that in this example the role description ‘friends of Mathias’ is understood to apply to both roles equally.
