10 roles
Annie is a complex little girl. She is a tough, streetwise urchin who is nevertheless vulnerable when she thinks she might lose what has become most important to her: a newfound "family" who loves her. Vocal range: A3-E5
Molly, Tessie, July, Duffy, Kate and Pepper. These girls are gritty, neglected and vulnerable, yet basically honest and potentially lovable.
This woman is definitely a "has-been." Her distaste for her job and the children that are part of it should be obvious in every line she speaks, every song she sings and every move she makes. Vocal range: G3-D5
Grace is mature, calm, cool and "together." She is classy and businesslike when dealing with Miss Hannigan and Warbucks, yet maternal toward Annie. Vocal range: A3-D5
Rooster and Lily are quite the team -- "team" being the operative word, as the characters play off each other constantly. Rooster is a flashy and self-assured gambling man and brother to Miss Hannigan. Vocal range: Bb3-Eb5
Rooster and Lily are quite the team -- "team" being the operative word, as the characters play off each other constantly. Lily (airhead that she is) is always distracted, although she manages to pick up on any conversation involving money. Vocal range: Bb3-Eb5
