Available roles: 2 female, 7 male
• Felix Ducotel – (M 45-55) An honest man, kind to a fault, who has no guile and is easily pushed around. He is very formal, and insists on wearing a business suit in the tropical heat for propriety's sake. Married to Emilie, father to Marie Louise.
• Marie Louise Ducotel – (F 18-25) Daughter of Felix and Emilie. A young girl in all regards, she tends towards the dramatic, but she has a good heart. Madly in (and out of) love with Paul.
• Mme. Parole – (F 40+) An overbearing patron of the shop, talkative and verging on the uncouth. She does not care to pay her tab at the shop.
• Joseph – (M 30+) Convict #3011. A natural-born salesman, he could sell ice to penguins. Imaginative and a smooth-talker. Loves selling and making deals.
• Jules – (M 30+) Convict #6817. A romantic soul, he is perhaps the most "normal" of the convicts. He loves creature comforts and does his best to make the Ducotel's Christmas a happy one.
• Alfred – (M 25+) Convict #4707 - The youngest and most immature of the convicts, he's the muscle of the crew, and easily the most dangerous. He keeps a pet snake, and he has an eye for Marie Louise.
• Henri Trochard – (M 45+) Felix's cousin by marriage. A man with little kindness in his heart, he sees everything, including love, in terms of profit margin.
• Paul – (M 18-25) Henri's son. In love with Marie Louise, but unwilling to cross his father over the matter. At the end of the day, he is much more like his father than he realizes.
• Lieutenant – (M 18-25) A handsome naval officer with a letter of introduction to Felix. Tired after a long night's work. (Basically, a walk-on role at the end of the play.)
Sides will be provided. All you have to bring is your resume and your winning personality.
