Officer Lockstock (baritone/bass — no specific age): He’s a policeman but mainly the narrator of the show. A great sense of humor.
Hope Cladwell (soprano with belt, 20s): A newcomer in town and the daughter of the owner of the Urine Good Company. Ingenue type; lover of Bobby; spends most of the second act tied to a chair.
Caldwell B. Cladwell (low A to high G): The villain — conniving and sneaky.
Bobby Strong (tenor/high baritone): A revolutionist — the young male lead. Falls in love with Hope.
Penelope Pennywise (mezzo/soprano to high C, belt to high G, 40s): Starts out as a crotchety caretaker but softens as the show progresses, especially when we discover she is Hope’s mother.
Little Sally (mezzo/alto): A precocious little girl who is always played by an adult. Narrates the show; in fact, she tries to give more away than Lockstock. One of the poor/rebels. A character role with a strong sense of humor.
Officer Barrel (tenor/baritone): Lockstock’s trusty sidekick, always following in his shadow. Has a bit of a love interest in Lockstock.
Little Becky Two-Shoes (alto): A little girl played by an adult; a little crazy and likes to hurt people. One of the poor/rebels. Needs to be able to let go of all inhibitions.
Ensemble: A diverse ensemble of 10–12 playing various male and female roles. All sing and dance. Many have named minor supporting speaking roles, including Cladwell’s lackeys and the poor citizens.
