Seeking performers for the following two available understudy positions (all other roles/understudy positions are cast):

The Reverend James Mavor Morell Understudy:

Available position. Morell is 35-45. He is a Christian Socialist, clergyman of the Church of England, and an active member of the Guild of St. Matthew and the Christian Social Union. Vigorous, genial, popular man of forty, robust and good-looking, full of energy, with pleasant, hearty, considerate manners, and a sound, unaffected voice, which he uses with the clean, athletic articulation of a practised orator, and with a wide range and perfect command of expression. Tenor-baritone; low: 2 A's below mid-C, high: F above mid-C.

Understudy for Miss Proserpine Garnett and Candida:

AVAILABLE POSITION. One actress covers both roles. Miss Proserpine Garnett: Morell’s secretary. She is a brisk woman of about 30, of the lower middle class, rather pert and quick of speech, and not very civil in her manner, but sensitive and affectionate. Mezzo soprano; low: A below mid-C, high 2 E's above mid-C. Candida: Early 30s. She is now quite at her best, with the double charm of youth and motherhood. She is pretty and has a fine figure but her attractions, particularly her sexual attractions, stem from an almost perfect blend of being at her physical peak and having an exceptional maternal instinct. She is graceful and effortless. Mezzo soprano; low: A below mid-C, high: 2 E's above mid-C.
