Meet the Gang!
All roles are open to all performers. We are looking for diverse casts who can embody the heart and soul of each of these beloved characters.
Charlie Brown
A loveable loser, who is best known for his self-defeating stubbornness and admirable determined persistence to try his best against all odds. He can never win a ballgame, but continues playing baseball; he can never fly a kite successfully, but continues trying to do so.
Lucy Van Pelt
Linus’ older sister. Lucy is a crabby, bossy, opinionated girl who enjoys teasing and tormenting the other characters, particularly Linus and Charlie Brown. She has a strong, unrequited crush on Schroeder.
Snoopy
Charlie Brown’s dog. Snoopy is more human-like than dog. He is best described as a dog who pretends to be a person (or who sometimes forgets he is a dog).
Schroeder
He is distinguished by his precocious skill at playing the toy piano, as well as by his love of classical music and the composer Ludwig van Beethoven in particular. Though Lucy vies for his affection, his heart is focused solely on his music.
Linus Van Pelt
Though young, Linus is unusually smart and he acts as the show’s philosopher. Despite Linus' intelligence and mature vocabulary, he cannot detach from his beloved blanket and he is often found sucking his thumb.
Sally Brown
Charlie Brown’s younger sister. Despite her innocent and adorable persona, she is actually quite intelligent and crafty.
