In the following example from Mary Pix's The False Friend, speeches (sp) in the body of the play are linked to castItem elements in the castList using the toWhom attribute, which is used to specify who the speech is directed to. Additionally, the stage includes toWhom to indicate the directionality of the action.

 <role xml:id="emil">Emilius.</role>
</castItem>
<castItem type="role">
 <role xml:id="lov">Lovisa</role>
</castItem>
<castItem type="role">
