THE MARVELOUS WONDERETTES Equity Principal Auditions - Hippodrome State Theatre Auditions

Show takes you to the 1958 Springfield High School prom where we meet the Wonderettes, four girls with hopes and dreams as big as their crinoline skirts! As we learn about their lives and loves, we are treated to the girls performing such classic ‘50s and ‘60s songs as “Lollipop,” “Dream Lover,” “Stupid Cupid,” “Lipstick On Your Collar,” “Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me,” “It’s My Party” and over 20 other classic hits!

All roles are available:

BETTY JEAN REYNOLDS: Betty Jean is the self-anointed clown of the group, always vying for attention from her best friend Cindy Lou. Her hair is red/auburn. (Alto with strong low range.)

CINDY LOU HUFFINGTON: Cindy Lou is the"bad girl" of the group. It seems that things always go her way, making Betty Jean crazy. (Mezzo Soprano with belt–sings lead on many songs.)

MISSY (MILLER) LEE: Always the over-achiever of the group, Missy is the one to cover for mistakes and is always ready to jump in and save the day. She has an inner sexiness–even slightly kinky–that comes out every once-in-a-while, much to her surprise and embarrassment. She has been best friends with Suzy since elementary school. (Soprano with wide range and very high vocals.)

SUZY (SIMPSON) STEVENS: Suzy is happy-go-lucky, a little giddy and a little silly. She’s always willing to go along with anyone and anything and she seems to giggle at just about anything. She finds great pleasure in everything she does; the sillier it is, the more fun she finds it. Her best friend is Missy. (Mezzo Alto with a sweet, soulful sound and big belts.)
