Breakdown
Seeking:
Deloris Van Cartier
Mid-20s to mid-30s, great singing voice, must be able to move well. A feisty, strong-willed, larger than life character. Brought up a Catholic and taught by nuns, she has rebelled against her upbringing. She has dreams of becoming the next big singing sensation. THIS ROLE IS PRE-CAST. WE ARE LOOKING FOR A COVER
Mother Superior
Late 30’s - 40s Haughty, well spoken, stickler for rules and routine, a tough exterior, with a softer side underneath
Sister Mary Robert
Late teens to early 20s Strong singer A small, postulant nun. Very timid and quiet, until she eventually finds her voice
Sister Mary Patrick
Mid-20’s -30’s A bubbly, excitable, over the top, larger than life character. Very innocent and not at all worldly-wise; everyone’s friend.
Sister Mary Lazarus
Late 30’s-Mid-50s Choir mistress who gets moved aside. Bit of a grump! Nothing fazes her, she takes everything in her stride, even rapping!
Monsignor O’Hara
Late 30’s - 40s+ A friendly, good natured gentleman. Always bright and positive, even though his parish is almost non-existent and faces closure. He loves the change that Deloris brings to his church.
Curtis
Late 20’s - 30s , Confident, chilled out, gangster. He is always in control of the people around him, his actions and any situation he finds himself in. He is untouchable, or so he thinks.
Eddie
Late 20’s – 30’s must be able to move well. Totally uncool police officer Bit of a nerd, but there is a cool guy hidden inside him, waiting to get out!
Michelle & Tina
20s/30s, good movers Nightclub backup singers. Good time girls, been around the block a few times!!
TJ
20’s Youngest of Curtis’ henchman and his nephew, which is the only reason he has the job! He is naïve, daft and childlike and easily manipulated. Finds humor in everything he can.
Joey
20’s – 30’s Curtis’ head henchman. Does what he is told without question. Thinks he is a cool ladies’ man, but he really isn’t!!
Pablo
20’s – 30’s Curtis’ Hispanic henchman. He is quiet, moody and the toughest of the gangsters. Most of his dialogue is in Spanish. He is a slick smooth dude, but slow!
