CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS
Vanya: 50's, living in Bucks County. Resigned to his life... more or less... at least compared to Sonia.
Sonia: His adopted sister. 50's, living with him in their parents' house. Discontent, upset, regretful.
Masha: His sister. 50's, glamorous and successful actress who goes gallivanting around the world.
Spike: An aspiring actor, late 20's, sexy, self-absorbed. Masha's new companion.
Nina: Lovely, sincere, would-be actress. 20's, visiting her aunt and uncle next door. Starstruck and energetic.
Cassandra: Cleaning person and soothsayer, any age, any race.
ABOUT THE PLAY
Chekhov is alive and well in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, where adult siblings Vanya and Sonia reside in their old family home, mourning their lost dreams and missed opportunities. When their often-wrong, fortune-telling maid warns of impending dangers, and their movie star sister, Masha, arrives unexpectedly with young, sexy, boy toy, Spike, the family is launched into a rollicking weekend of one-upmanship, exposed nerves, and a lot of broken mugs.
Produced by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc.

Characters
All roles are currently filled.
THANK YOU to all our wonderful actors!
Here are the characters in "God of Carnage"
VERONICA HOULLIE
(Age Range 25+)
At first she seems like the most benevolent of the bunch. Instead of resorting to litigation regarding her son Bruno’s injury, she believes that they can all come to an agreement about how Ferdinand should make amends for his attack. Of the four principles, Veronica exhibits the strongest desire for harmony.
MICHAEL HOULLIE
(Age Range 25+)
At first, Michael seems eager to create peace between the two boys and perhaps even bond with the Reilles. He offers them food and drink. He is quick to agree with the Reilles, even making light of the violence, commenting on how he was a leader of his own gang during his childhood.
ANNETTE REILLE
(Age Range 45+)
Ferdinand’s mother is constantly on the brink of a panic attack. In fact, she vomits twice during the course of the play. Unfortunately, the pressures of motherhood and household have eroded her self-confidence. Annette feels abandoned by her husband who is eternally preoccupied with work. Alan is glued to his cell phone throughout the play, until Annette finally loses control and drops the phone into a vase of tulips. Annette is the most physically destructive of the four characters. *Must be able to throw up believably onstage*
ALAN REILLE
(Age Range 45+)
Alan might be the most stereotypical character of the group in that he is modeled after other slimy lawyers from countless other stories. He is the most openly rude because he frequently interrupts their meeting by talking on his cell phone. His law firm represents a pharmaceutical company that is about to be sued because one of their new products causes dizziness and other negative symptoms. He claims that his son is a savage and doesn’t see any point in trying to change him. He seems the most sexist of the two men, often implying that women have a host of limitations.

Roundabout Productions announces auditions for our July production, Ken Ludwig's "The Game's Afoot (or Holmes for the Holidays)".
It is December 1936, and Broadway star William Gillette, admired the world over for his leading role in the play Sherlock Holmes, has invited his fellow cast members to his Connecticut castle for a weekend of revelry. But when one of the guests is stabbed to death, the festivities in this isolated house of tricks and mirrors quickly turn dangerous.

CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS (ALL ROLES ARE OPEN)
WILLIAM GILLETTE: MALE, 36-45
A dynamic and charming stage actor, Gillette made a fortune from his stage adaptation of Sherlock Holmes, whom he also plays. Recently shot in the arm in a bizarre incident, he is determined to bring his Sherlockian skills to bear on solving the case.
FELIX GEISEL: MALE, 40-45
The company’s character actor, Felix is histrionic and arch. A true theatrical that has given his life to the stage, Felix is Gillette’s best friend and occasional sidekick. Married to Madge.
SIMON BRIGHT: MALE, 23-27
Simon is an enthusiastic young man, eager to please and find success. A bit of a naïf, Simon can occasionally be overly sensitive. Recently married to Aggie, they make a charming and wonderful couple.
INSPECTOR HARRIET GORING: FEMALE, 40-59
English and eccentric, completely one of a kind. By turns, witty and incisive, suddenly lost and dim, she is disarming in her inability to be defined. Always off the mark, yet never far from the truth, somehow she always gets her man.
MARTHA GILLETTE: FEMALE, 70-79
Gillette’s dotty mother, elegant though a bit foggy, Martha never shies away from a fight. Always willing to lob a criticism when necessary, all the same, Martha is loyal to Gillette and his gang of theatrical misfits.
MADGE GEISEL: FEMALE, 40-45
Wry and outspoken, Madge, like her husband Felix, is a lifelong theatrical. Is game for anything, but back her into a corner and she will come out swinging.
AGGIE WHEELER: FEMALE, 23-27
Bright-eyed and energetic, Aggie is the ingénue of the company. She is good-natured and kind, and has had tragedy in her past, though she seems to have dealt with it well, and even moved on. Recently married to Simon, they make a charming and wonderful couple.
DARIA CHASE: FEMALE, 34-47
Glamorous and gorgeous, Daria is the theatre critic we all love to hate. Biting, bitchy, and utterly charming, you can’t help but like Daria, despite the terrible things she says and writes.
