27 roles

Deloris Van CartierFemale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

A strong, street- wise aspiring singer who gets caught up with the wrong crowd. When she witnesses a crime involving her ex-boyfriend, she is put in witness protection – as a nun! Deloris is reluctant at first, but the more time she spends at the convent, the more she realizes that time with the sisters is exactly what she needed. Cast a great actress and wonderful singer in this powerhouse role.

Eddie SoutherMale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

The quintessential good guy with a heart of gold. Though Eddie was overlooked by Deloris in high school, he never quite got over his crush on her, which results in a few awkwardly endearing moments throughout the show. Cast an excellent actor and singer who can portray this hardworking, sweet, dependable cop.

Mother SuperiorFemale17-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Devoted leader of the convent. Her church and her sisters come before all else – and she’s not afraid to voice her opinion. Mother Superior means well and eventually comes around regarding Deloris. Mother Superior is a major role, so look for an excellent singer and actress who can portray this strong, independent woman.

TinaFemale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Deloris’s backup singers. These featured roles are perfect for enthusiastic performers. Cast solid, good singers who are comfortable with speaking lines in this fun girl group!

NinaFemale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Deloris’s backup singers. These featured roles are perfect for enthusiastic performers. Cast solid, good singers who are comfortable with speaking lines in this fun girl group!

ElleFemale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Deloris’s backup singers. These featured roles are perfect for enthusiastic performers. Cast solid, good singers who are comfortable with speaking lines in this fun girl group!

MichelleFemale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Deloris’s backup singers. These featured roles are perfect for enthusiastic performers. Cast solid, good singers who are comfortable with speaking lines in this fun girl group!

Curtis JacksonMale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

To put it frankly, a complete jerk. He’s not only mean and dishonest, he’s also dangerous – and he’s got Deloris on his radar. Curtis does not sing a solo, so cast a fantastic actor in this role who can make the most out of playing the bad guy.

JoeyMale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

The wise guy of Curtis’s group. He’s an upbeat charmer who is always ready with a joke – even though he’s one of Curtis’s criminals. Cast a charismatic, funny actor with a great singing voice in this role.

TJMale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Not the brightest bulb in the bunch, and the audience is meant to have a few laughs at his expense. Cast a solid comedic actor who has great chemistry onstage with Joey and Pablo.

PabloMale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

The strong, silent type who definitely leans into his role as the muscle of the group. He has a few lines and sings some, but most importantly, he should make a great third member of the trio with Joey and TJ.

ErnieMale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

One of Curtis’s thugs and, unfortunately, takes the fall for being a police informant. This is a featured role for a good actor! Will be also cast in another role later in the show.

Monsignor O'HaraMale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

The charming spiritual leader of the Queen of Angels Cathedral. His bottom line is to save their church, and hemwill do anything to support the bottom line – including forcing Mother Superior to house Deloris. Monsignor O’Hara should have a good stage presence and a sense of comic timing. He does not sing a solo in the show, so cast an actor with charisma who can take over the stage!

Mary PatrickFemale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

A nun in the convent. She is an upbeat, over-the-top, enthusiastic person who is always looking on the bright side. She has a number of solos within songs, so cast a good singer and actor in this fun role.

Mary RobertFemale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

A postulant and the youngest of the abbey’s inhabitants. Shy, soft- spoken, and a bit of a wallflower, she enjoys being a nun, but her friendship with Deloris lets her truly find her voice. Cast a powerhouse singer and a great actor in this role.

Mary LazarusFemale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

One of the older nuns at the convent, and she leads the choir. She is rather deadpan and not particularly welcoming to Deloris at first, though Deloris’s love of music eventually wins her over. Cast a great character actor with a sense of comic timing who is comfortable with character singing.

Mary Martin-Of-ToursFemale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

A nun who definitely exists in her own world, so cast a good actor in this role that can make strong character choices. This nun has some wonderful stand-out moments, which include delivering an excellent karate chop, but she does not sing a solo, so cast someone who is a stronger actor than singer for this memorable role.

Mary Celeste, Mary IreneFemale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Mary Celeste and Mary Irene are the convent’s cooks. They have a few featured solos, so cast confident singers in these roles.

Mary StephenFemale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

A nun in the convent with a fantastic singing voice. She’s supportive of Deloris’s music from the start. Cast a great singer.

Mary TheresaFemale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

The oldest nun in the convent. She has a few featured lines and a small solo. This role is a great opportunity for someone new to the stage, so cast a good actor in this role who is comfortable singing in a group.

NunsFemale6-18 y.o.All ethnicities

The Nuns (including Nun 1, Nun 2, and Nun 3) help fill out of the world of the convent. Nun 1, Nun 2, and Nun 3 have featured solos, so be sure to cast actors in these roles that are ready for their moment in the spotlight.
