"You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown" Play Seeks Teens
ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. Seeking high school-aged students for "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown" play. See the details below. About the project: "You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown" brings the beloved Peanuts characters to life in a charming, fast-paced musical. The show follows Charlie Brown as he navigates the ups and downs of childhood — trying to be liked, impressing the Little Red-Haired Girl, succeeding in baseball, and simply figuring out where he fits in. Along the way, his friends offer their own perspectives: Lucy’s bold confidence, Linus’s thoughtful wisdom (and ever-present blanket), Schroeder’s dedication to music, Snoopy’s vivid imagination, and Sally’s earnest optimism. Through a series of humorous and heartfelt vignettes, the show celebrates friendship, imagination, and the universal trials of growing up. Additional info: Please prepare a musical theatre song (not from this show) that is about one minute long and shows your voice and personality. Directors will not have a pianist, so please plan to sing with a karaoke track from a phone or other device. Will have a speaker for you to connect your device to for the audition. There will not be a dance audition for this production. If callbacks are necessary, directors will have those on Sunday, February 8th in the afternoon. For more information, please see the attachment. If you are interested, please apply.
7 roles
Charlie Brown is kind, earnest, and perpetually hopeful - even when things don’t go his way. He wants to succeed, to be liked, and to finally get a win, but life (and his friends) often have other plans. The actor playing Charlie should have strong comedic timing, natural sincerity, and the ability to carry the emotional heart of the show. Vocal range: Bb2 - F4 (Baritone)
Snoopy is Charlie Brown’s imaginative, scene-stealing beagle. He transforms from pet to World War I flying ace, novelist, dancer, and romantic hero - often without speaking directly to the other characters. This role requires excellent physical storytelling, comedic instincts, and confident stage presence. Vocal range: C3 - A4 (Baritone/Tenor)
Lucy is bold, bossy, outspoken, and completely sure of herself. She runs a psychiatric advice booth, critiques everyone around her, and has a not-so-secret crush on Schroeder. The actress playing Lucy should be fearless, funny, and command the stage with strong character choices. Vocal range: G3 - F5 (Alto/Mezzo-Soprano)
Linus is thoughtful, intelligent, and surprisingly wise - always with his security blanket in hand. He offers philosophical insight and quiet sincerity, often grounding the show’s emotional moments. The role needs an actor who can balance gentle humor with genuine warmth. Vocal range: Bb2 - E4 (Baritone)
Schroeder is a serious young musician devoted to Beethoven and his toy piano. He is focused, intense, and often exasperated by Lucy’s interruptions. This role suits someone with strong comedic precision and the ability to play exaggerated seriousness. Vocal range: Bb2 - Ab4 (Tenor).
Sally is Charlie Brown’s little sister - enthusiastic, dramatic, and full of imaginative logic. She speaks her mind, adores Linus, and brings bright energy to every scene. The actress playing Sally should be expressive, playful, and comfortable with comedic monologues. Vocal range: B3 - Ab5 (Soprano/Mezzo-Soprano)
The ensemble members bring the wider world of the Peanuts neighborhood to life. These performers may portray characters such as Peppermint Patty, Pig Pen, Frieda, Shermy, Woodstock, and the Little Red-Haired Girl. Ensemble performers participate in musical numbers and help create the imaginative environments of the story through movement and scene transitions. Because this is an intimate, small-cast production, ensemble members are highly visible throughout the performance. Vocal range: Any.
