Character Descriptions
for
Love Thy Neighbor
|
Auditions are
December 3 & 4, 6:30 PM at the Civic Theatre
LEONA CRUMP: In her 50s, all brass and sass, and dripping with
sarcasm. She is a sour, judgmental neighborhood snoop, and champion
marigold horticulturist.
JUDY HARRISON: Late 20s or early 30s, a neighbor in the
cul-de-sac.
She is sweet, naive.
Judy doubles as BAMBI: Gafina's sister.
Provocatively-dressed young
woman who never speaks, but says a lot with her body.
GAFINA HAMBEFFERSCHMIDT: New to the neighborhood, in her
40s.
Obnoxious woman with an annoying "machine gun" laugh.
ROSE BUSH: Anything over 30. A successful, eccentric real
estate sales
lady whose trademark is a rosebush.
AVA: A saleswoman of various cosmetics and goods. Dressed
to the nines
and not afraid to match fists with Leona.
Ava doubles as MAWTILDA FEESHENSHELBAFIELD: Gafina's loud,
intrusive hillbilly mother. Her teeth would make "Mr. Ed" envious.
ALBERT: Leona's husband. Retired career soldier, not the
epitome of
the couch potato.
PAUL HARRISON: Judy's husband. Likes to spell out
homophones;
frequents Leona's kitchen for sustenance.
GEORGE: A mailman in his 50s. Easy going but snaps up
every
opportunity to get Leona's goat.
TURNER: Gafina's simple-minded boyfriend who courts Leona.
He's right
at home in an ear-flapped cap, overalls and a soiled undershirt.
OFFICER FRANK (FRANCIS) DOONAN: (gender flexible role)
Takes his
job seriously, but could use another semester at the police academy.
