BREAKDOWN
Peggy Sawyer
20’s A young, starry-eyed, naïve, and humble chorus girl who dreams of stardom. She is the triple threat in the show - must sing, act, and dance (tap) very well. Mezzo soprano: should belt and be able to easily transition to head voice.
Julian Marsh
late 30’s – early 50’s Famous, but notorious, Broadway director of his new show PRETTY LADY who comes off gruff as he barks his directions at actors and crew but is charismatic. Voice: Baritone : range D to high G.
Dorothy Brock
late 30’s- 40’s A slightly past-her-prime and well-known Broadway diva. She is selfish and mean to everyone at first, but comes to understand what’s really important in life. Low Alto. She must move well.
Billy Lawlor
20’s Youthful, leading man, high tenor, attractive, very strong dancer with excellent tap.
Maggie Jones
