Play synopsis: It’s a dark and stormy night, and our cast of oddball characters have been invited to a very unusual dinner party. Each of the guests has an alias, the butler offers a variety of weapons, and the host is, well, dead. So, whodunit? The iconic oddballs known as Scarlet, Plum, White, Green, Peacock and Mustard race to find the murderer in Boddy Manor before the body count stacks up. Based on the classic cult film and the popular board game, Clue is a madcap comedy that keeps you guessing until the final twist.

    

AVAILABLE ROLES

 

WADSWORTH (Male, 30+): A traditional British butler in every sense: elegant, disdainful, and “by the book.” He is the driving force in the play.

YVETTE (Female, 20-30): A sexy, French maid with her own secret aspirations.

MISS SCARLET (Female, 25+): A dry, sardonic, intelligent D.C. madam who is more interested in secrets than sex, although she doesn’t mind dressing the part.          

MRS. PEACOCK (Female, 30+): The church-going wife of a Senator. A bit batty, neurotic, and quick to hysteria.

MRS. WHITE (Female, 30+): A pale, morbid, and tragic woman. Mrs. White may or may not be the murderer of her five ex-husbands.           

COLONEL MUSTARD (Male, 30+): A puffy, pompous, dense, blow-hard of a military man.

PROFESSOR PLUM (Male, 30+): An academic Casanova who woos women with his big brain.

MR. GREEN (Male, 20+): A timid, yet officious, rule follower. He’s a bit of a klutz and awfully anxious.
