SEEKING:
[DOROTHY BROCK]A well-known, but just passed-her-prime Broadway Diva. Low Alto. She is not a great dancer, but some basic movement is required. Female, 50s. Grand but vulnerable actress. Great Smokey Jazz voice. Beautiful but past her prime. Should be over 5'6”. PRINCIPAL $800/week.
[JULIAN MARSH]Famous, but notorious, Broadway director who comes off very gruff as he barks his directions at actors and crew. Voice: Baritone : range D to high G. Dancing: Light $800/week.
[PEGGY SAWYER]A young, starry-eyed, naïve, and humble chorus girl who assumes the Lead role in Pretty Lady when Dorothy breaks her ankle. She is the triple threat in the show – must sing, act, and dance (tap) very well. Alto-mezzo soprano: should belt and be able to easily transition to head voice. $600/week.
[BILLY LAWLOR]The youthful, leading tenor in Pretty Lady. Voice: very high tenor. Dancing: very strong, especially in tap. $600/week.
[MAGGIE JONES]One of the writers for Pretty Lady. Comedic role. Alto-Mezzo soprano: Ab below middle C to C. Some dance required. $600/week.
[BERT BARRY]One of the writers for Pretty Lady. Comedic role. Tenor: range C to high F. Some dance required. $600/week.
[PAT DENNING]Former vaudeville partner of Dorothy's and her secret romantic partner. Vocal range: D to Eb. $500/week.
[ANDY LEE]Choreographer/Dance Director of Pretty Lady. No solo singing. Dancing: Intense, especially tap.
[ABNER DILLON]Financial backer of Pretty Lady and Dorothy's "sugar daddy" from Texas. He doesn’t realize Dorothy is only with him because of his money. Mostly speaking role, no solo singing. $500/week.
[ANYTIME ANNIE]Sassy chorus girl in Pretty Lady. Heavy dance role (tap) who can also sing (belt).
[OSCAR]Onstage rehearsal pianist for the show Pretty Lady. It would be a plus if he could really play piano well, but not mandatory.
[MAC/THUG/DOC]Stage Manager role and other parts. Speaking only. No dancing required.
[LORRAINE FLEMMING, PHYLLIS DALE, AND GLADYS]Experienced chorus girls who help Peggy. Heavy dance roles (tap) who can sing (belt) as well. Limited solo singing with some spoken lines.
