Audition for Singing in "White Christmas"

(Baritone) A former army captain and half of the song-and-dance duo Wallace and Davis, Bob is a world-wise, cynical yet charming individual with a strong sense of loyalty and duty. A superb singer with a crooning style who moves well.

(Bari/Tenor) Phil, the other half of the duo, is Bob’s complete opposite – a fun-loving, adventurous, and somewhat mischievous individual who’s always on the lookout for a good time and romance. He’s instantly smitten with Judy Haynes. A song-and-dance comic performer, strong tap and jazz.

(Strong Mix/Sop extend) Betty is the older Haynes sister. She’s independent, pragmatic, and protective of her younger sister Judy. Despite her skepticism, she finds herself falling for Bob. A female singer of quiet beauty and charm who must move well.

(Strong Mix) Judy is the more vivacious and adventurous of the Haynes sisters. She’s a romantic at heart and often the driving force behind many of their decisions, including the one to follow Bob and Phil to Vermont. – A song-and-dance performer, strong tap and jazz.

The General is a stern, authoritative figure with a gruff exterior but a kind and caring heart. He’s the owner of the failing Vermont Inn and was the commanding officer of Bob and Phil during World War II. Except for one line, a non-singing role.

(Strong Belt) Martha is the General’s lovable and nosy housekeeper. She’s a Broadway performer in retirement and still has a flair for the dramatic. An appealing character-comedienne.

Susan is the General’s curious and intelligent granddaughter with dreams of becoming a performer. She’s wise beyond her years but still has a childlike innocence about her. She must have an excellent belt voice and be able to move well.

(Baritone) Army buddy of Bob and Phil’s, now a major television executive with the Ed Sullivan Show, Fast-talking, New York professional.

RITA AND RHODA – Bob and Phil’s two star chorus girls, they are brash, sexy, and fun, although perhaps not the smartest.

(Strong Baritone) The ultimate taciturn New Englander, who helps out at the inn and takes life at a very slow pace.

The Stage Manager, a non-singing/non-dancing role, has a tendency to be over-dramatic and completely hysterical, but will get things done.
