A hilarious farce-meets-murder mystery, Clue is the comedy whodunit that will leave both cult-fans and newcomers in stitches as they try to figure out…WHO did it, WHERE, and with WHAT!
From the director who brought you Fuddy Meers, The Lutz Radio Show, and The Violet Hour.
AVAILABLE ROLES…
Wadsworth (M 30-50) heaviest line-load
The respectable butler, he has been placed in charge of the evening events by long -ime employer, Mr. Boddy. Major driving force in the play, needs excellent comedic timing.
Yvette (F 20-30)
Young French maid who is not directly involved in the evenings events but has been swept up all the same. Naive and easily frightened.
Miss Scarlet (F 30-40)
A woman of business who knows what she wants and how to get it. Seductive, comfortable with using men to her own needs.
Mrs. Peacock (F 50-70)
Batty and out of touch, she was the height of the social scene a few decades ago. The wife of a “great Senator” who will do anything to keep her (somewhat faded) life of privilege.
Mrs. White (F 40-60)
Classy and stoic, widow several times over. Her icy facade hides a depth of burning rage.
Colonel Mustard (M 40-60)
Befuddled military man. Thinks he is quite something around the ladies (he is not).
Professor Plum (M 30-50)
A researcher for U-NO WHO. An intelligent type if not exactly a gentleman.
Mr. Green (M 30-40)
An anxious man carrying a heavy secret. Timid and unassuming.
