47 roles

Margaret NewFemale36-39 y.o.All ethnicities

"EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT JAMIE" Jamie’s mom. She adores her son more than anything in the world and fully supports his dreams. Her devotion leads her to protect Jamie from certain tough realities, and she keeps some important secrets as a result.

Hugo/Loco ChanelleMale40-49 y.o.All ethnicities

"EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT JAMIE" Drag queen. It’s hard to know, as he has an ageless timelessness. He has lived through some extraordinarily tough times, including the AIDS epidemic in the 1980s and 90s. Years of struggle and loss have stunted his zest for performing, though when he is back in drag, he is “fierce as fuck” and full of tough love. He undergoes a revival of spirit when he mentors Jamie.

RayFemale30-39 y.o.All ethnicities

"EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT JAMIE" Margaret’s best friend. She also adores Jamie. She is a spirited person who likes to have a good time, but at heart is an emotional rock. Like Pritti, she’s the kind of friend you want in your corner.

Miss HedgeFemale30-39 y.o.All ethnicities

"EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT JAMIE" She is an overworked and exhausted teacher who may be on the brink of burning out. She was once idealistic but is now resigned to the grim realities of teaching at a working- class school in a working-class town, and she has temporarily lost her ability to see the possible.

Laika VirginMale20-29 y.o.All ethnicities

"EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT JAMIE" Drag queen. Like any good drag queen, she can throw shade with the best of them, but she still stands up for her sisters.

Tray SophisticayMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT JAMIE" Drag queen. Like her sisters, she can be sassy and brash, but she is also loyal and has a heart of gold.

Sandra BollockMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT JAMIE" Drag queen. Like Laika and Tray, she is shady in the most fun ways, but also fiercely loyal and encouraging.

Jamie’s DadMale30-39 y.o.All ethnicities

"EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT JAMIE" A working class man. He is full of regrets, but he drinks too much and can’t bring himself to love his son fully. Embittered, he will resort to cruelty to those whom he doesn’t love.

Young LocoMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT JAMIE" Appears in a flashback. Young Loco’s man who betrays him with The Other Woman. This role may double.

PamelaFemale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"MERCURY" A married woman, definitely type A. She is used to getting her way in most things and is probably a little lonely. She is willing to go to extremes to seek revenge.

HeatherFemale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"MERCURY" A married woman, charismatic and poised. She is used to relying on a friendly smile to smooth things over.

AliciaFemale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"MERCURY" A woman, she is the proprietor of an unusual curiosity shop. She is chatty with a “new age” vibe and vacillates between flighty and ominous. Steeped in the occult.

OliveFemale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"MERCURY" A woman, downstairs neighbor. She is a busybody who thinks of herself as good and correct, though she is myopic and may also resort to extremes to make sure bad things happen to those she believes have behaved badly.

NickMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"MERCURY" A man. A solid communicator. He’s doing an okay job of holding it together in hard times; the strong one.

BrianMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"MERCURY" A man. Nick’s boyfriend. He is handsome and flippant, definitely an urbanite. He is still learning how to commit during hard times.

SamMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"MERCURY" Alicia’s boyfriend. He’s not an angry guy, just very matter of fact, easily frustrated and usually bloody. He’s also the physical manifestation of vengeance. *Please note that this role requires nudity.

Angel AllenFemale33-37 y.o.African-American

"BLUES FOR AN ALABAMA SKY" She is outspoken and at times self-centered. The Great Depression is knocking at her door in more ways than one. She is still clinging to the Roaring Twenties, the thrill of the improv found in jazz, and the life she was supposed to have. But deep down, she just may be okay. This role involves a kiss with the character Leland under the supervision of an Intimacy Director.

Guy JacobsMale28-32 y.o.African-American

"BLUES FOR AN ALABAMA SKY" Gay, costumer, truth teller, and loyal to a fault. He sees the world through swatches of vibrant colored fabrics. Which, in turn, allows him to see people for who they are and what they can be and accept them. But does the world accept him? He is tenacious in an almost unrealistic way. If anyone is going to make their dreams a reality, it just might be him.

Delia PattersonFemale23-27 y.o.African-American

"BLUES FOR AN ALABAMA SKY" Earnest. She works at the Margaret Sanger family planning clinic. She is finding her way. She is extraordinary, also read that is extra-ordinary. There is an intellectual revolutionary storm brewing inside of her. She is on the cusp of being someone her ancestors could only dream of if she could act. She is the future. This role involves a kiss with the character Sam under the supervision of an Intimacy Director.

Sam ThomasMale43-47 y.o.African-American

"BLUES FOR AN ALABAMA SKY" A doctor in Harlem. The friend you got to when your best friend is unavailable. Think of a savory memory, one wrapped up in lots of laughter. He can heal all things, whether it be a cold or a broken heart. He is the gentle smile at the end of a bad day. He is a doctor. He is wise. Most importantly, he is family. This role involves a kiss with the character Delia under the supervision of an Intimacy Director.

Leland CunninghamMale26-29 y.o.African-American

"BLUES FOR AN ALABAMA SKY" Set in his ways, he stunned by and in awe of Angel’s lifestyle. He is the classic man from the 1920s who fell in love deeply with a fiery passion. The Deep South baked into his soul. He is steady and true, even a little naïve. And he believes he is right; he really does and believes that is his right. This role involves a kiss with the character Angel under the supervision of an Intimacy Director.

Master of CeremoniesMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"CABARET" The host at the Kit Kat Club. Seductive, outrageous and tempting. Sexually fluid. His strangeness can exude charisma in one moment and menace in the next. Throughout the course of the play, his darker side emerges more fully. (Vocal Range: C3-G4)

Sally BowlesFemale20-29 y.o.All ethnicities

"CABARET" She is free-spirited and sexually liberated and though she has a big heart, her desperate commitment to hedonism overpowers her relationships and self-image.

Clifford BradshawMale20-29 y.o.All ethnicities

"CABARET" Young American in Berlin for the first time. Extraordinarily curious about the excesses of Berlin, but would be perfectly content to return to his conventional middle class life in America. Looking for a great adventure but unnerved to his core by the underbelly of what he discovers. This role requires onstage intimacy under the supervision of an Intimacy Director. (Vocal Range: C#3-E4)

Ernst LudwigMale20-29 y.o.All ethnicities

"CABARET" He is charming and affable, and he makes friends easily. But he also reveals himself to be a Nazi with deep-seated sympathies to that terrible cause. (Vocal Range: D3-F#4)

Fraulein SchneiderFemale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"CABARET" She has been on her own for so long that she has devoted herself to pragmatism as a means of survival. She must make a heartbreaking decision when faced with the choice between opening her heart and choosing survival. (Vocal Range: Eb3-B4)

Fraulein KostFemale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"CABARET" She is a sex worker who is struggling to make a living. She is a survivor. She is a lot of fun at parties and forms friendships easily, but even she reveals darker tendencies. (Vocal Range: F#3-Eb5)

Herr SchultzMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"CABARET" Jewish. He has a sweet spirit, though his optimism and belief in the goodness of others cannot stop the insidious pressures from the outside world from affecting his life. (Vocal Range: C3-G4)

MaxMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"CABARET" German. Part-owner of the Kit Kat Club. Sometime lover of Sally Bowles. This role requires onstage intimacy under the direction of an Intimacy Coordinator.

Customs OfficialMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

"CABARET" A taciturn person who checks passports on the train to and from Berlin.

NicoMale35-39 y.o.Latino / Hispanic

"A THIRD WAY" Queer and reads as such in a subtle but undeniable way. Nico perpetually lives in a hurricane, sometimes in the eye, sometimes beautifully in the wind and waves, sometimes he’s just messy – a natural disaster and an awesome force of nature. (Please note that this role requires onstage intimacy, which will be conducted under the supervision of an Intimacy Director.)

MattMale35-39 y.o.White / Caucasian

"A THIRD WAY" Nico’s husband. He’s gay (as opposed to queer) – and there’s something quote unquote All-American about him, in the truest sense of American – white supremacy and all – at once cocky and insecure. There’s something at once conservative (not politically, but literally) and yet always learning for some approval he isn’t getting. (Please note that this role requires onstage intimacy, which will be conducted under the supervision of an Intimacy Director.)

EricaFemale35-39 y.o.Latino / Hispanic

"A THIRD WAY" Highly successful, highly driven, highly discontent with how her life, identity and time have become almost completely built around her work. Best friends with Nico since college. Once a year they take epic vacations that Judd Apatow could make a movie out of.

HaamidMale30-39 y.o.Middle Eastern

"A THIRD WAY" Femme queer. Born in the states, son of immigrants, has had a lot of therapy to become comfortable with who he is. His therapy has imbued him with the zeal of a new convert who thinks he’s got things figured out, but is actually still very much a work in progress (Please note that this role requires onstage intimacy, which will be conducted under the supervision of an Intimacy Director.)
