Seeking:
Sister Clarissa:
Female, 70s. (casting director states it will consider actors in other age ranges that can play 70 believably) Orthodox, strict, old-fashioned nun; genuinely believes that her unbending methods are needed to teach young minds and save young souls’ sly and sometimes withering wit.
Ellen Pazinski:
Female, early 40s. Attractive, working class mom in an old Northeastern city; has eyes in the back of her head, she is the bemused ringmaster of a family of four children; great sense of humor with a mix of authority and compassion.
Eddie Pazinski:
Male, 18+ to play 15 years old. Catholic high school student who is discovering the joys of the opposite sex; star player on school baseball team, not the brightest bulb, but very streetwise and charming.
Annie Pazinski:
Female, 18+ to play 16 years old. Catholic school girl, guilt ridden about her endearingly romantic yearnings for boys; she has typically teenage feelings of inferiority; possibly overweight but not fat; an excellent sense of comedy is necessary.
Chet Pazinski:
Male, 40s. Working class dad in an old Northeastern city; father of four, he owns and runs a tavern over which the family lives; his real passion is baseball and would have had a career but for a childhood “accident”; has a quicksilver temper which is more destructive than he realizes; his occasional moderately macho posturing is an important source of humor in the play.
