4 roles
Female (cis, trans, or non-binary). Efficient yet caring housekeeper. Legit voice. NOTE: May u/s the role of MOTHER ABBESS.
Female (cis, transgender, or non-binary). Wise, kind, and strong. Powerful chest and head voice – Mezzo or Soprano (B-A-flat). We are actively seeking the ensemble tracks of Schmidt & an off-stage Swing. NOTE: This principal role will be covered either by the actor who plays the featured ensemble role of FRAU SCHMIDT (40s-50s, efficient yet caring housekeeper), or by the off-stage female SWING.
Female (cis, trans, or non-binary). 5’0” - 5’3”, 18+, excellent legit singer to play various adult tracks in the ensemble and cover the roles of LIESL (16) and LOUISA (13). LIESL - a teen on the verge of womanhood. Innocent and naive, but smarter than anyone thinks. She’s “playing with fire” when it comes to Rolf, and enjoys that feeing. Chest mix with a head voice (low G to F#) and must be an excellent dancer. LOUISA - initially mischievous, she eventually softens to Maria.
Female (cis, trans, or non-binary). Will cover all ensemble tracks including FRAU SCHMIDT, SISTER SOPHIA, SISTER BERTHE, and SISTER MARGARETTA. Versatile legit soprano voice.
