2 roles
Lana Mae runs the Wishy Washy Washateria. She’s been in a bad marriage for five years, but is oblivious to her husband’s philandering and cheating. Her thoughts regarding marriage and love are throwbacks to the 50s, as evidenced by her rendition of "Stand By Your Man." Cheerful, bighearted, a real diamond-in-the-rough. Vocal range: F3 - F5. Mezzo-alto (with strong country belt).
Katie finds a job working for Lana Mae in the laundry and sets out to help Lana Mae break free from her husband. At the same time, Katie is struggling with her own obsession with her ex-boyfriend, who still figures prominently in her imaginary love life. KATIE is a bit more prim and proper than Lana Mae, with a touch of neurosis thrown in for good measure, and her accent is not nearly as strong. Vocal Range: E3 - F5. Mezzo-Soprano (with strong country belt).
