Dotty Otley / Mrs. Clacket

A young, attractive actress, Brooke plays Vicki, the sexpot Roger lures to the play’s country estate. While Vicki is a professional woman, Brooke is empty-headed and has difficulty following conversations. Brooke is romantically linked to Lloyd, and spends much of the play wearing only her lingerie. She frequently loses her contact lenses.

Brooke Ashton / Vicki

Belinda is a capable actress who tries to keep the show on track as the others go further and further astray. A bit of a gossip, she reveals all the romantic triangles to the rest of the group and delights in being “in the know.” She portrays Flavia Brent, Philip’s wife. Flavia is upper-class, poised, and far more sensible than the characters around her.

Belinda Blair / Flavia Brent

Garry Lejeune portrays Roger, a real estate agent. Offstage, Garry is hotheaded and jealous, especially when his relationship with the show’s star, Dotty, goes sour. Garry’s most distinctive attribute is his inarticulate speech. He frequently completes sentences with, "you know..."

Garry Lejeune / Roger

Frederick Fellowes plays Philip. Both the actor and the character often find themselves in the middle of situations they did not cause. Freddy is always apologizing to the other members of the company for his stupidity, and is prone to nosebleeds at the mere mention of violence. He repeatedly seeks out reassurance and validation from Lloyd.

Frederick Fellowes /Phillip Brent

An aging actor, Selsdon is an incorrigible alcoholic who is also hard of hearing. He plays a Burglar trying to break into the Brent's home, and is often caught sneaking off with a bottle of liquor.

Selsdon Mowbray / Burglar

The beleaguered director of Nothing On. Altho he has an inflated self-image, his theatrical star may have faded. In a love triangle with Poppy and Brooke, as the play progresses, he seems more interested in his romantic relationships than the production’s success. Lloyd has no patience for the cast’s inability to master the requirements of the show.

Lloyd Dallas

The equally beleaguered Assistant Stage Manager. She wants to do a good job and is likely the most professional in the company. In a relationship with Lloyd at the beginning of the play. In addition to suffering through the cast’s many mood swings, she must also contend with the inconsistent affections of Lloyd. She is the understudy for the female roles.

Poppy Norton-Taylor

Tim is the perpetually exhausted and over-worked Stage Manager who also acts as the company’s understudy. He hasn't slept in 48 hours as of the beginning of the play.

(Soprano with belt. Range: F#3–A5)
 Always the over-achiever of the group, Missy has now blossomed into a full-fledged adult over-achiever. She has an inner-sexiness (even slightly kinky) that comes out every once-in-a-while, much to her surprise and embarrassment. She has been best friends with Suzy since elementary school.

Missy

(Mezzo Soprano with belt— sings lead vocal line on most group songs. Range: A3–E5)
Cindy Lou is the "bad girl" of the group, now reformed (to a point). She is sexy with a dry and sassy wit, and has a miles-high jet-black beehive, a cross between the Ronettes and early Priscilla Presley. She has an incredible soft side and inner depth, revealed in her Act II monologue and ballad.

Cindy Lou

(Mezzo/Alto with big belt. Range: C#3–E5)
Suzy is happy-go-lucky, a little giddy, a little silly, and a little pregnant. She’s always willing to go along with anyone and anything, and she seems to giggle at just about anything. Her honey-blond hair is reminiscent of early Marlo Thomas/"That Girl.” Her best friend is Missy.

Suzy

(Strong Alto with big belt. Range: D3­–Eb5)
Betty Jean is the self-anointed clown of the group, always vying for attention from her best friend Cindy Lou. She has a strength that belies her goofiness. This strength is what gives her empathy; she has no "poor me" in her attitude. This pays off in her Act I closing song. Her hair is red/auburn.
