ROLES:
All roles are currently available. All roles require terrific comedians and actors who are well suited to dialect work from several regions of the UK.
----------------------------------
Francis Henshall: Perhaps on the heavy side. 30s-40s. Brilliant physical and verbal comedian. Ability to effortlessly use Essex dialect. The underdog who wins. Actor must possess great comic timing, be inherently winning and charismatic. Lyric baritone (high note = high F)
Stanley Stubbers: Mid to late 20s. English equivalent of east coast prep school boy. Privileged, privately-educated and has no awareness of how privileged he is. Handsome. Baritone or lyric baritone (high note = C or F)
Rachel Crabbe: Mid 20s. Great physical actor with strong comic instincts and a great sense of playfulness. At ease inhabiting men's clothing (Ringo Starr). Knows what she wants and how to get it. From London. Mezzo soprano (low note A below middle C, high note D mixed). Must sing well.
Harry Dangle: Late 50s-Early-Mid 60s. Crooked Solicitor (Lawyer) From Rottingdean looking to sound higher brow then he really is. Partner in a shady law firm. Lyric baritone (high note = high G).
Alan Dangle: Harry's son. 20s-30s. Actor. In love with Pauline. Dramatic, Dramatic ACTOR. Baritone or lyric baritone (high note = C or F)
Lloyd Boateng: London/Jamaican Late 40s to 50s. Friend to Clench. Charismatic, working class with an air of charm. Loyal. Warm.
Charlie "The Duck" Clench: 50s. Pantalone character and as such controls the money in the play. Father to Pauline. Runs a scrap metal company over which he lives. Not used to being disobeyed.
Pauline Clench: Charlie's daughter. (Clarice character or inamorata in Commedia). Was engaged to Roscoe who died but now engaged and in love with Alan Dangle. As one of the lovers, she tends to be a bit "Over-Dramatic". Full of life. It's good when it's good and bad when it's bad! Mezzo soprano (low note A below middle C, high note D mixed). Must sing well.
Dolly: 30s-40s. Brassy. A match for Francis. Is the bookkeeper, but keeps the world spinning in the right direction. Mezzo soprano (low note A below middle C, high note D mixed). Must sing well.
Gareth: Support waiter. Younger than Alfie but not a YOUNG man. 40s would be ideal
Alfie: Younger but made-up to look extremely OLD. GREAT physical comedian. No Fear. Must be able, willing and ready to do several pratfalls and engage in extremely difficult, choreographed physical comedy.
Ensemble: Male and female. Open to all possibilities. Should audition with contemporary British comic monologue or read from scenes from the play
