SEEKING

Equity actors for principal roles (see breakdown)

JEAN VALJEAN – 35-40s. Sings to B (high lyric baritone or tenor with both strong low notes and a strong falsetto). A poor man who rises to affluence, he has great natural nobility and dignity. A powerful figure, a physically and morally large man with a character of operatic size and passion. The voice has a pop/rock sound or a classical sound of extraordinary textual clarity. This character can be Black, Indigenous, API, Latine, MENASA, Mixed or White. ROLE ON OFFER.

JAVERT – 35-40s. Baritone, sings to G. Policeman who relentlessly hunts Valjean. An imposing character. The ultimate “law and order” figure. Obsessed, to the point of irrationality, with a rigid and merciless moral code. He too is a character of operatic size and passion. Both belt voice and classical can suit this role. Has a natural gravitas and a darker vocal quality than Jean Valjean. This character can be Black, Indigenous, API, Latine, MENASA, Mixed or White. ROLE ON OFFER.

THENARDIER – Late 30s-40s. Strong comic character role. A dishonest innkeeper, later a petty, amoral thief. Greedy, irreverent, selfish, boorish, vulgar. Baritone, sings to F sharp. Has a strong handle on using text in song. This character can be Black, Indigenous, API, Latine, MENASA, Mixed or White. ROLE ON OFFER.

MARIUS – Late teens to early 20s. High baritone (sings to A) with a strong bottom (to A). A member of the aristocracy who joins the revolutionary student movement.

Later is a pauper, a prostitute, a consumptive and a ghost. Earthy and poignant. Although finally defeated by circumstances she should appear to be strong and a survivor. She puts up a valiant fight against the horrors of her life. This character can be Black, Indigenous, API, Latine, MENASA, Mixed or White. ROLE ON OFFER.

COSETTE – Late teens to early 20s. Fantine’s daughter (first seen as and played by a child). Delicate, elegant, and vulnerable. Cosette is also loyal, confident, intelligent and has a curiosity and spirit that pushes her to strive for a life of her own beyond the comfortable but sheltered life she was brought up in. Falls in love with and later marries Marius. Soprano (to high C) but a light, young “floating” sound, without heavy vibrato. This character can be Black, Indigenous, API, Latine, MENASA, Mixed or White. ROLE ON OFFER.

EPONINE – Late teens to 20s. An enormous and beautiful belt voice, with a contemporary edge. Belts to C sharp (sings to E flat). Daughter of the Thénardiers but in no way behaves like them. Fired by an unrequited love for Marius. Gamine, forlorn. Hasn’t learned to disguise her emotions; wears her heart on her sleeve.

Production Description 

This new comedy musical is the story of a talented, but difficult-to-work-with actor who will do anything to land the role of a lifetime—including adopting a new persona as Dorothy Michaels.

SEEKING

Submissions for select open roles, and future replacements.

[MICHAEL DORSEY/DOROTHY MICHAELS] Male Identifying, Any Ethnicity, 30s-early 40s. MICHAEL DORSEY is an actor’s actor. A focused perfectionist, outspoken, stubborn, abrasive and at 40 – frustrated at where his career hasn’t taken him. He’s myopic when it comes to his work, non-committal and flirtatious when it comes to women and exasperating to all when it comes to something he wants. Highly intelligent and desperate to do the one thing he loves more than life itself… act. When Michael realizes that he can no longer book work after an audition goes poorly, he reinvents himself as actress, Dorothy Michaels, and wins the part. DOROTHY MICHAELS is strong willed, understanding, humorous, playful, and always speaks her mind. She can talk to people in a way Michael can’t. She’s slightly coy, slightly vain, and completely lovable. She’s Michaels better half, and sometimes, his better whole. Strong comic chops are needed. Baritenor (A2-G4/Bb4) with either a very strong high falsetto/mix or a high tenor belt. LEAD

[JULIE NICHOLS] Female Identifying, Any Ethnicity, 30s. An actor at a crossroad in her life. Focused, self-aware, and self-assured. She has an organic beauty and heartfelt humor – which she uses to avoid what she’s really feeling. She masks her pain and longs to connect. Kindhearted and modest, she gets the joke, is grateful for what she’s been given, but is not ready to demand what will make her happy. She won’t give her heart easily, but when she does, it’s completely. Mezzo with a strong mix/belt. PRINCIPAL

[SANDY LESTER] Female Identifying, Any Ethnicity, mid-late 30s. She’s neurotic, pessimistic, self-deprecating, childish, and easily flummoxed. She is her own worst enemy – second-guesses her third guesses, can’t let anything go and literally created a yoga position called ‘The Downward Spiral.’ She thinks the world is out to get her, wallows in self-pity. She makes her anxieties known incredibly loudly and really just wants to be happy. She’s got a big heart, which always gets broken. Any voice part, mix or belt up to C5, highest note is E5. PRINCIPAL

[JEFF SLATER] Male Identifying, Any Ethnicity, 30s-40s. A sardonic realist who lacks the ambition and drive to live up to his potential. The voice of reason that swirls just outside the eye of Michaels chaos. Jeff sees the humor of situations and has no reluctance to point out people’s flaws – even his own. His self-awareness and observations make him Michaels sounding board and conscience, as well as best friend. A lethargic ball of moderate enthusiasm, Jeff has a motto: “Seize the day!” – He sees the day, then goes back to bed. Baritone/baritenor with falsetto. PRINCIPAL

[MAX VAN HORN] Male Identifying, Any Ethnicity, late 20s-30s. Self-obsessed, with a limited wit. A firm believer in his own hype, he’s a ‘personality’ who measures his appeal through artificial adulation… and can’t imagine anyone not being attracted to him. Welcoming any opportunity to take off his shirt, he thinks the world revolves around him. He never gets the joke and is sure he’s deeper than he is. Tangled earbuds are his Rubik’s Cube. This role will be performed shirtless. Baritone/baritenor (C3 to G4). PRINCIPAL

[RON CARLISLE] Male Identifying, Any Ethnicity, 40s-50s. An incredibly successful director – just ask him. He demands respect and is often disrespectful in return. His ‘creative well’ does not go that deep, but he knows what sells. He has little patience, and even less vision. Loves an argument as long as he wins it and manages to work his accomplishments into EVERY conversation. He’s the first to tell you that he’s damn good at being humble. Baritone, but material is in a comfortable mid-range for most voices. PRINCIPAL

[RITA MARSHALL] Female Identifying, Any Ethnicity, 50s-60s. Levelheaded, experienced and the voice of sanity and reason in a swirling pool of crazy. She is always a beat ahead of everyone and is very New York. Alto/mezzo, but material is in a comfortable low range for most voices. PRINCIPAL

[STAN FIELDS] Male Identifying, Any Ethnicity, 50s. Michael’s overworked agent. Always to the point, he plays the game, but hates it. He knows how to talk around any subject. He’s put upon, exasperated and has been around the block… more than once. Perhaps it’s because he refuses to pay for parking. This role does not sing. PRINCIPAL

[ENSEMBLE – DANCERS WHO SING] All genders and identities, all ethnicities, late 20s–late 30s. Seeking excellent dancers who are strong singers. Looking for charismatic performers who have a great sense of humor. Partnering is a plus. Ensemble will understudy lead/principal roles.

[ENSEMBLE – SINGERS WHO MOVE] All genders and identities, all ethnicities, late 20s–late 30s. Seeking excellent singers who move well. Looking for charismatic performers who have a great sense of humor. Partnering is a plus. Ensemble will understudy lead/principal roles.

Based on Tim Burton’s dearly beloved film, this hilarious new musical tells the story of Lydia Deetz, a strange and unusual teenager whose whole life changes when she meets a recently deceased couple and a demon with a thing for stripes.

SEEKING

[ENSEMBLE DANCERS] Fantastic dancers/singers of all shape/sizes/genders/types. Various characters and residents of the Netherworld. All have fantastic jazz skills; some tracks will tumble and do tricks. Great singing voices and comedy skills are a plus.

[MISS ARGENTINA/ENSEMBLE] – A deceased beauty queen who took her own life in the wake of her triumph as Miss Argentina. Now she is the friendly face of the Netherworld, welcoming the recently deceased to a purgatory of nothingness. She would do anything for another chance at life; to embrace it for all of its highs and lows. Miss Argentina has a healthy sense of ego and vanity. Fabulous dancer and high belt/mix voice. ENSEMBLE.

[ENSEMBLE SINGERS] Fantastic singers/dancers of all shape/sizes/genders/types. Various characters and residents of the Netherworld. All have fantastic singing voices and comedic skills.

[OTHO/ENSEMBLE] 30-50, A professional guru with an untraceable accent, Otho speaks hypnotically in self-help koans and future-forward Silicon Valley jargon. He is grandiose, theatrical and promises what hucksters have always promised: Happiness, with no strings attached. Any ethnicity. Great singer. ENSEMBLE

[JUNO/MAXINE DEAN/ ENSEMBLE] Ancient, grouchy, and an unrepentant chain smoker, Juno is the great-great-grandmother of all demonic bureaucrats. She’s chief gatekeeper of the Netherworld, the supremely underwhelming afterlife that awaits us all, and she takes that job very seriously. She’s got ice water and red tape running through her veins (the ones that haven’t varicosed), and deeply enjoys the strict rules that she has imposed. Efficiency and organization mean she doesn’t have to work any harder than necessary, and so she runs a tight ship. Juno processes one hundred and sixty thousand people a day into the Netherworld, and has seen it all…except for a living person. Also MAXINE, the recent trophy wife of Maxie who enjoys being the eye candy. She knows the honeymoon phase won’t last forever, and hopes she is of interest long enough to inherit Maxie’s estate. Slightly out of her element but eager to be in the room where the most exclusive, exciting thing is happening. Sings very well. ENSEMBLE.

[GIRL SCOUT/ENSEMBLE] – An adorable, sunny, optimistic pre-teen who is determined to make her first cookie sale. She lives with congenital heart disease and just one shock could kill her, but she’s not going to let that get in the way of her mission. High belt voice. ENSEMBLE

[MAXIE DEAN/ENSEMBLE] – 40s/50s, A boisterous self-made entrepreneur who loves to laugh. He’s used to being the alpha in the room, has money coming in from all sorts of places, and never leaves home without his legal team. Maxie approaches his personal life like business, always looking for the next best endeavor, and is deeply infatuated with his current wife Maxine. Good singer. ENSEMBLE

Production Description

Cornley Polytechnic Dramatic Society presents ‘Murder At Haversham Manor’, and everything that could go wrong, does. We are looking for truthful, funny, physically adept performers who can commit to the style of the play and fully inhabit the characters. It is vital to believe in the characters who are performing the play within the play, as that is where the heartbreaking comedy comes from. With that in mind, we are looking for actors with a keen ability and understanding of comedy but are able to play the truth of the scenes.

SEEKING

CHRIS (Male, 25 – 35, any ethnicity) High status clown. Rigid, uptight, everything really matters. He is the director of the show and this is the biggest day of his life. Everything is riding on this. It is a nerve wracking and exciting night. His pain is evident and every time someone laughs the pain deepens. He has equal amounts of contempt for his fellow actors & the audience watching the play. RP ACCENT.

ROBERT (Male, 25 – 35, any ethnicity) Wants to be Richard Burton, as evidenced by his declamatory style. He is, however, not a parody of a bad actor. He is unaware of others around him. He does not feel badly when things go wrong and never learns from his mistakes. There is a power struggle between Robert and Chris to be president of the Cornley Poly Drama Society (a position that matters a great deal to Robert). Has real vocal power. RP ACCENT.

MAX (Male, 25 – 35, any ethnicity) He has never been on stage before. He learned his lines and does exactly what he’s told to do. He has zero connection with any of the other actors, but when he gets a laugh he breaks the 4th wall and engages with the audience. Childlike and naïve. His mistakes are fundamental. He doesn’t think anything through, just looks for approval. RP ACCENT.

DENNIS (Male, 25 – 35, any ethnicity) He has no real desire to be involved in the theatre, he just wants to make friends (of which he has none). He believes if he does well in the show, he will be more successful socially. Laughter from the audience is agony for him. He may be slightly oblivious, but understands when he gets things wrong. The laughter is a personal tragedy/failure. RP ACCENT.

TREVOR (Male, 25 – 35, any ethnicity) The play’s lighting and sound operator. He simply wants to get on with the show. Curmudgeonly and doesn’t care for actors. He is easily distracted and does many things he shouldn’t, including engaging with the audience. When things go really sideways, he is forced to act in the play. He hates acting. STANDARD AMERICAN ACCENT.

JONATHAN (Male, 25 – 35, any ethnicity) A bit bland, but sees himself as a James Bond type. Excited and having fun, but not naïve. He technically has to drive the show. He cares about the play, but not to the same extent as the others. Very physical. RP ACCENT.

SANDRA (Female, 25 – 35, any ethnicity) She is vain and possess a huge ego. Wants to be loved. Has ambitions to go to Hollywood and will hurt anyone standing in the way of what she wants, but is smart enough to stay on the good side of someone who can help her (like the director). You know the type. The stakes are high for her. Very physical. RP ACCENT.

ANNIE (Female, 25 – 35, any ethnicity) The stage manager. She has the biggest journey of any of the characters. When Sandra is indisposed Annie, who cannot bear to be on stage, must step in. Initially terrified by acting, she is willing to kill for it by the end of the play. Her initial terror turns to joy, and then to fury. She starts small, but grows and grows. STANDARD AMERICAN ACCENT.

Production Descriptions 

An American in Paris: An American GI’s chance encounter with a beautiful young dancer leads Paris to become the backdrop to a sensuous, modern romance of art, friendship and love in the aftermath of war.

Rodgers and Hammerstein’s South Pacific: Set against the dramatic background of an idyllic South Pacific island during WWII, South Pacific intertwines the themes of romance, duty, and prejudice to create a story that is all at once hilarious, heartbreaking, and thought-provoking. Based on the anecdotes of a real-life U.S. Navy commander who was stationed on an island, the musical follows two intercultural love stories: Nellie, a spunky nurse from Arkansas, falls in love with Emile, a French plantation owner on the island who has two children from his late Polynesian wife; at the same time, U.S. Lieutenant Cable falls for a beautiful island native named Liat. Both Americans find themselves struggling to reconcile their own cultural prejudices with their amorous feelings, all the while under the dark cloud of a war that is coming ever closer to their island paradise.

NOTE: With the exception of a few roles in South Pacific, Big League Productions, Inc. will present these two shows with the same company of performers. This will be a unique challenge for the entire traveling company and the selection process will be rigorous.

Cady Heron may have grown up on an African savanna, but nothing prepared her for the vicious ways of her strange new home: suburban Illinois.  Soon, this naïve newbie falls prey to a trio of lionized frenemies led by the charming but ruthless Regina George.  But when Cady devises a plan to end Regina reign, she learns the hard way that you can’t cross a Queen Bee without getting stung.

SEEKING

REGINA GEORGE – Female, any ethnicity, 18+ to play 17. Regina is the Queen Bee of the Plastics. When she shines her light on you, you feel like the most important person in the world. When that light goes cold, you want to die. She is regal, still, and “hot”, but at her most vulnerable moments, she is just a kid in over her head. Broadway rock with an exceptional range.

MRS. HERON/MS. NORBURY/ MRS. GEORGE –
Female, any ethnicity, 30-50. One actor to play all three roles. MRS. HERON is Cady’s crunchy, intellectual mom who can’t understand why her daughter is devolving before her eyes. MS.

• Musical Supervisor: Alex Lacamoire
• Book: Steven Levenson
• Choreography: Danny Mefford
• Casting: Tara Rubin Casting/Kevin Metzger-Timson, CSA

Production Description

Dear Evan Hansen is the deeply personal and profoundly contemporary musical about life and the way we live it.

Dear Evan Hansen has struck a remarkable chord with audiences and critics everywhere, including The Washington Post who says Dear Evan Hansen is “one of the most remarkable shows in musical theatre history.” The New York Times calls it “a gorgeous musical for anyone with a beating heart.” And NBC Nightly News declares the musical “an anthem resonating on Broadway and beyond.”

Dear Evan Hansen features a book by Tony Award- winner Steven Levenson, a score by Grammy, Tony, Olivier and Academy Award-winners Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (La La Land, The Greatest Showman), and direction by four-time Tony Award-nominee Michael Greif (Rent, Next to Normal).

SEEKING

SEEKING EQUITY ACTORS FOR BROADWAY AND NATIONAL TOUR FUTURE REPLACEMENTS FOR ALL PRINCIPAL ROLES (see breakdown):

Evan Hansen (17): Strong Pop Vocalist, G2-B4. Smart, sincere, and painfully self-conscious, Evan prefers to hover in the background, a supporting player in his own life, too afraid to step forward into the spotlight and risk ridicule or, what might be worse, no one noticing him at all.

Zoe Murphy (16): Strong Pop Vocalist, F3-E5 (belt). A sensitive, sophisticated high school junior. Cool without realizing it, Zoe could care less about the status games and popularity rites of high school. Funny and bright, she has grown up in the long shadow cast by her volatile older brother, Connor, tyrannized along with the rest of her family by his out-of-control behavior. Few rooms are as familiar to her as the inside of a family therapist’s office. Zoe compensates for her brother’s darkness by striving to be warm, nice to everyone, the kind of person who goes out of her way to learn the names of the kids who sit by themselves at lunch. She feels a terrible ambivalence over her brother’s death, finding it difficult to forgive him for all he did, and at the same time forgive that part of herself that feels nothing but relief in the fact that he’s gone.

Alana Beck (17): Strong Pop Vocalist, F3-E5 (belt). A diligent, conscientious, straight-A high school senior, Alana is a do-gooder and a rule follower. Her acute self-awareness and social anxiety make it difficult to connect with others. Beneath her extroverted demeanor, she is in fact haunted by a terrible and abiding loneliness. Alana seizes the death of a classmate as an opportunity finally to find a sense of belonging. Well-intentioned and self-effacing, Alana is transformed by her fixation on the tragedy.

Connor Murphy (17): Strong Pop Vocalist, G2-G4. An angry, disaffected loner, Connor has been a troubled kid for as long as anyone can remember, an enigma and a source of endless consternation to his long-suffering parents.

Jared Kleinman (17): Strong Pop Vocalist, A2-B4 G4. Droll and sarcastic, Jared carries himself with the kind of practiced swagger only the deeply insecure can truly pull off. He is forced by his parents to hang out with family friend Evan, for whom he claims to have nothing but disdain. Jared masks his self-doubt with braggadocio and a know-it-all arrogance.

Heidi Hansen (40s): Strong Pop Vocalist, F3-Eb5 (belt). Evan’s mother. Overworked and stretched too thin, Heidi loves her son fiercely, but fears they have begun to grow apart. She is prepared to do anything to repair the damage.

Cynthia Murphy (40s): Strong Pop Vocalist, F#3-E5 (belt). Connor and Zoe’s mother. To Evan, she seems to be the perfect mother, nurturing, available, and willing to talk about anything. To her own children, it’s a bit more complicated.

Larry Murphy (40s): Strong Pop Vocalist, F#2-G4. Connor and Zoe’s father. Though often tense and taciturn, Larry shows a different face to the world, representing for Evan the dad he always wished for: strong, confident, and more than anything, reliable, someone to be counted on.

Understudy 1 & 2: Will understudy the roles of Cynthia and Heidi (40’s).

Understudy 3 & 4: Will understudy the roles of Zoe and Alana (17).

Understudy 5: Will understudy the role of Larry (40’s).

Understudy 6 & 7: Will understudy the roles of Evan, Connor and Jared (17).
