Seeking Teens for "The Drowsy Chaperone" Show

The narrator and host for the show. He is a musical theatre aficionado, truly happy listening to his collection of soundtracks from classic Broadway shows. This is the only character that is not a stock character from 1920’s musicals. Speaking Role.

Star of Feldzieg’s Follies who is conflicted about giving up her life on the stage to marry Robert Martin. Attractive, vivacious, outgoing personality.

The groom-to-be who is deeply in love with Janet. He is the token 1920s leading man – debonair, dashing, and a matinee idol. He is cheesy, cheerful, and optimistic. Must be able to tap dance and roller skate.Vocal range: Tenor (C3 – Ab4)

Janet’s alcoholic confidante. Care-free, often because she is drunk. An experienced “woman of the world” who couldn’t care less what the world thinks. A melodramatic diva to be reckoned with who gleefully chews the scenery and steals just about every scene she is in. Great comedic role. Vocal range: Alto with strong belt (F3-D5)

Latin lothario. A womanizing cad who is very impressed with himself. He is confident, vigorous, and a buffoon. Vaudeville-style acting and fake Spanish/Italian accent required. Should have great comic timing. Vocal range: Bass/Baritone + great falsetto (A#2-G4)

Mrs. Tottendale’s unflappable butler and manservant. He is stoic, dry-humored and sarcastic. Vocal range: Tenor character voice (Ab2-G4)

1920s dumb blonde chorus girl. She is Mr. Feldzieg’s companion and will do anything to be a leading lady. Vocal range: Soprano comedic belt (Bb3-F5)

Two jovial gangsters who are posing as pastry chefs. Typical 1920s Broadway gangsters full of word play and stylized movements. Good comic timing and dancing skills required. Vocal range: Tenor (Db3-Gb4)
