THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE - NATIONAL TOUR - ROLE BREAKDOWN

- MILLIE DILLMOUNT: (Early to mid 20's) MILLIE is a very appealing, honest, feisty, and unique young woman. Undeterred by her Midwestern upbringing & naivete, she arrives in New York determined to acquire big city sophistication and a rich husband. She is a pragmatist who dreams big. Must be an excellent singer (soprano & belt), a good dancer, and a superb comedienne.

- MISS DOROTHY BROWN: (Early to mid 20's) MILLIE's best friend, a classic old-fashioned beauty who checks into the Priscilla looking for life, 'raw and real,' as preparation for a career on the stage. She has lived in a glass bubble of extreme wealth her entire life, but her cluelessness in the ways of the real world is in no way haughty or snobbish; in fact, it is her charm. Seeking an actress with a beautiful soprano voice, strong dancer, & an unexpected, offbeat comic sensibility.

- JIMMY SMITH: (20's) An irrepressible, buoyant personality. Full of the headlines of the era -- classic Roaring Twenties -- he loves to have a good time. JIMMY wants to be MILLIE's beau, but lacks an important credential: money. Despite his lack of finances, he possesses the assurance, savvy, and poise of a well-born young man. Sexy, charming, and tall, he is also a terrific singer (tenor) and dancer.

- TREVOR GRAYDON: (Early 30's - early 40's) MILLIE's boss, a knockout. The original Arrow Collar Man with a yen for efficiency. He falls hard for MISS DOROTHY. Must be a great singer (baritone) and actor.

- MRS. MEERS: (40's) Striking and sinister, with a barracuda smile. MRS. MEERS owns the Hotel Priscilla, Residence of Young Ladies -- a mere front for her highly profitable sideline, white slave trading. Seeking an actress with great comedic skills who can sing.

- MUZZY VAN HOSSMERE: (30's - 50's) Glamorous, big-hearted, fun loving, and wise. Think Pearl Bailey crossed with Josephine Baker. A diva who knows how to have a good time while never losing sight of what really matters in life: love. Must be a sensational singer. Seeking an African-American for this role.

- BUN FOO: (Late 20's - 30's) One of two henchmen in the employ of MRS. MEERS' white slaving business. The brothers reluctantly help MRS. MEERS in exchange for bringing their mother to America. Seeking an Asian man with good comic skills that can sing.

- CHING HO: (Late 20's - 30's) An unwilling associate to MRS. MEERS, CHING HO falls hard for MISS DOROTHY and saves her from a life of prostitution in South East Asia. Seeking an Asian man with great comic skills that can sing.
