SWEET CHARITY
SEEKING:
CHARITY HOPE VALENTINE - ROLE IS CAST. Warm, charming, funny, and emotionally transparent, with an almost mythic belief that love will save her. Charity has a remarkable capacity to begin again after each disappointment. The role requires a true triple threat who can balance athletic physicality, sharp comedy, sensuality, and profound vulnerability while preserving the openness, hope, and emotional generosity that make us root for her.
NICKIE - Streetwise, sharp-tongued, and fiercely protective of Charity, though never afraid to call her out. She has a toughness masking her own desire for a better life. Requires a charismatic singer-dancer, and a sharp comic. Mezzo with a strong belt.
HELENE - Dry, grounded, and quick-witted, with a clear-eyed understanding of the world. Requires a comic and superb singer-dancer who completes the trio of Charity and Nickie. Mezzo with a strong belt.
