CAST LIST

I did my first directing gig in 1982 (Brigadoon, FHS), and this was absolutely the toughest casting job I've done since. I have never had so many good options and tough choices, and for my next show, I want to audition a bunch of strangers whose feelings I don't care about. But this is a great opportunity for FCOA, and I've done my best to pull together a cast that can do this show justice and make the theater proud.

Casting Ranges

A few more words about cast requirements, focusing on the vocal.

Velma: Velma is a lusty alto, getting all the way down to As and Gs

Roxie: Also works the bottom end of the range, down to As and Gs

Billy: A baritone, a la Crosby, but he needs a good solid top-of-the-staff F

Mary Sunshine: Here's the soprano part. Goes up to a good solid A
