Not in very concrete terms, no; I usually construct a role for a character instead of the reverse.
But if you'd like a bit of a starting point...
Essentially, there are two categories of characters for this: players, and clients.The separation isn't actually 100%, since the players are also susceptible to...things.
But essentially, if you want someone to be a player/employee of the theater, they should represent a specific appeal to a particular vice (either general, like gluttony, or very specific); if they're part of the inner circle, they've likely been physically changed to better fulfill this role. Outer-circle players are actors who are complicit but not (usually) active participants.
Clients should be people who have a specific want they can't express in society at large, and which induces them to have self-destructive impulses. The ultimate goal of the theater is to drive people to a self-inflicted death that is in keeping with their essential vice.
If you need something more specific than that, ask and I'll brainstorm a little.
