​

Callbacks, if needed, will be held on Thursday June 26th in a different location.

​


The characters
 

  • Wadsworth, a traditional British butler in every sense: uptight, formal and “by the book.” He is the driving force in the play.
     

  • Yvette, a loyal and sexy French maid.
     

  • Miss Scarlet, a dry, sardonic D.C. madam, more interested in secrets than sex.
     

  • Mrs. Peacock, the wealthy wife of a senator. A bit batty, neurotic, and quick to hysteria.
     

  • Mrs. White, a pale, morbid, and tragic woman. Mrs. White may or may not be the murderer of her five ex-husbands.
     

  • Colonel Mustard, a puffy, pompous, dense, blow-hard of a military man.
     

  • Professor Plum, an academic academic, easily impressed by himself.
     

  • Mr. Green, a timid yet officious, rule follower. He’s awfully anxious.
     

  • Ensemble Woman:

    • ​The Cook, a gruff woman with a threatening presence. (Alive and Dead.)

    • Singing Telegram Girl, a tap dancer with a heart of gold. (Alive and Dead.)

    • Auxiliary Scarlet, the back of Miss Scarlet during a scene of theatrical trickery.

    • Backup Cop, backup for the Chief in the very final Cop entrance.
       

  • Ensemble Man 1:

    • Mr. Boddy, a slick, Frank Sinatra, film noir-esque type fella. (Alive and Dead.)

    • The Motorist, a professional driver. (Alive and Dead.)

    • Chief of Police, a cop who helps to save the day.
       

  • Ensemble Man 2:

    • The Unexpected Cop, a regular Joe. (Alive and Dead.)​
