Seeking Performers for "The Music Man" Show

Vocal Range: Baritone (approx. A2–F4) A magnetic storyteller with a gift for reading a room and turning doubt into possibility.

We’re looking for charisma, specificity, and an actor interested in building real relationships with the town.

Vocal Range: Legit Soprano (approx. G3–F5/A5) River City’s librarian and piano teacher. Sharp, principled, and deeply observant, Marian sees through bravado but still longs for joy and surprise. Looking to be played with wit, warmth, and emotional clarity rather than stiffness.

Vocal Range: Mezzo/Alto (approx. E3–D5) Marian and Winthrop’s mother. Practical, optimistic, and quietly romantic, she carries the emotional weather of her household. A role that rewards grounded humor and sincerity
