11 roles

CHARLIE BROWNMale12-13 y.o.All ethnicities

The everyman; with ever changing moods; both befriended and ostracized by all; a loser-yet-leader who is often depressed but rises out of every downfall with shining hope and determination. Personality-wise, he is gentle, insecure, and lovable. Charlie Brown possesses significant determination and hope but frequently fails because of his insecurities, outside interference, or plain bad luck. While he can be smart, he over-thinks things.

SNOOPYMale12-13 y.o.All ethnicities

Charlie Brown’s pet beagle. A genuinely happy dog; full of energy, imagination and sass; known for his “happy dance” and his numerous alter-egos. Snoopy is very popular in the neighborhood. A physical, more than speaking, role.

LUCYFemale12-13 y.o.All ethnicities

Linus’s older sister; bossy and a know-it-all, but very smart and a natural leader; has a crush on Schroeder; is ready to be older than her age; interests include psychiatry and real estate. Most of the comic strips she appears in show her threatening, complaining and/or taunting. She is easy to anger when she does not get what she wants.
