Possible contract extension
Annie Oakley – Famous Sharpshooter, strong belter with a significant range, young backwoods character with self assurance and spunk who transforms from dirty illiterate to the star of the Buffalo Bill Show by virtue of her expert marksmanship and sunny disposition. Good comedic timing, and no inhibitions. Strong presence.
Frank Butler– Leading Man. The male star of the Buffalo Bill Show. Best marksmanship in the world – until Annie comes along. Lyric baritone. Strong actor, self assured bordering on conceited, strong command.
Dolly Tate – Frank Butler’s Assistant in Buffalo Bill show, good alto, obnoxious personality. Wild with jealousy over Annie’s success. Must be able to play “big character” without being “over the top”.
Charlie Davenport – Dolly Tate’s brother and chief critic, Manager of the Buffalo Bill Show. Seen it all roadie. Capable, direct, exasperated with the craziness of the tour. Strong comedic timing, sarcastic. Baritone.
Winnie Tate – Dolly’s pretty younger sister and chorus girl in the show. Falls in love with and marries Tommy Keeler. Dancer. Light belter

Chief Sitting Bull – Wide old native American leader. Indian chief who adopts Annie Oakley, baritone. Dryly hilarious. Comedic timing a plus. Non Singing role.
Foster Wilson – Crusty old Hotel Manager, baritone, strong personality with dry wit. Non singing role.
Pawnee Bill – Owner of the Far East show, primary competitor of Buffalo Bill, Baritone. Good showman skills. A somewhat oily, less repectable version of Buffalo Bill.
Minnie, Jessie, Nellie – Annie Oakley’s backwoods sisters, strong singers and actresses (ages vary 7-15) should be able to show dry wit.
