PRODUCTION STAFF
director:  Brian Kelly

producer:  Linda Minkoff

ROLES
Percy Talbott (early 20s).  Pretty, if a bit rough-edged, her face declares the strength of her youth and sadness beyond her years.  Her accent has a southern Appalachian cadence (but please don't use one for auditions).  Strong folk/country belt to 'D', some head voice required.

Hannah Ferguson (about 70).  A tough-skinned and flinty old bird with a short, no-nonsense manner bordering on the bitter.  Mezzo/alto chest range.

Shelby Thorpe (mid-30s).  A plain, soft-faced creature with a shy, almost ethereal manner.  Shimmering folk soprano with strong high belt to 'D'.

Caleb Thorpe (early 40s).  Out-of-work foreman of the stone quarry.  Frustrated working man clinging to the past.  Solid folk/rock voice with an edge (Top 'G').

Sheriff Joe Sutter (mid-late 20s).  A young small-town policeman with an appealing intensity and a restless nature.  Strong folk tenor to a 'G' (touches an 'A').

Effy Krayneck (50s).  Postmistress and busybody, a woman with narrow eyes and a sour tongue.  Solid singer in mezzo/alto chest range.  Carries close harmony.

The Visitor (mid-40s).  A mysterious figure who never speaks.  An actor with powerful eyes and a very strong sense of his body.
We look forward to seeing you at auditions!
