AUDITIONS

Constellation is seeking local, non-union performers aged 18+ for our fall Constellation for Kids production of You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown. Mitchell Ward, Director. Brandon Magid, Musical Director. Laura Rong, Choreographer.

1st Rehearsal – October 7, 2025
Performances – October 29 – November 16, 2025

Rehearsals will generally be scheduled for evenings and weekends. The performance schedule will include several 10am student matinees (Wednesdays and Thursdays), so all actors must have daytime availability on those days during the run.

All roles except Lucy are available. Actors interested in auditioning should submit a headshot and resume to Kate Galvin, Casting Director (casting@seeconstellation.org) by Friday May 30th. Initial auditions will be via self-tape, with in-person callback to be scheduled later in June.

Seeking actors for the following roles:

Charlie Brown – Tenor. The central character of the musical, Charlie Brown is an everyman. Despite being seen as a loser by his peers, he is optimistic and determined. He is kind, gentle, and has a big heart. Vocal Range: Tenor (Bb2-F4)

Sally Brown – Soprano. Charlie Brown’s younger sister who is sweet and innocent but can be self centered, skeptical, and absurdly intense. She has a crush on Linus and often misinterprets his kindness. Vocal Range: Soprano (Bb3-A5)

Snoopy – A dog. Tenor or Alto. Charlie Brown’s imaginative and lively pet beagle. Snoopy has a wild imagination, loves to daydream, and lives in his own fantasy world. Despite his quirks, he is very loyal to Charlie Brown. Vocal Range: Tenor or Alto (C3-A4)

Lucy Van Pelt (Replacements only) – Alto. A bossy, crabby, self-important girl who often bullies others, especially Charlie Brown and her brother Linus, in a misguided attempt to help. Despite her tough exterior, she has moments of compassion, vulnerability, and insight. Vocal Range: Alto (G3-F5)

Linus Van Pelt – Baritone. Lucy’s younger brother, who is intelligent and philosophical despite his young age. He is almost never seen without his security blanket. He provides a lot of the show’s wisdom. • Vocal Range: Baritone (Bb2-E4)

Schroeder – Tenor. A piano-playing prodigy who is obsessed with Beethoven. He is the object of Lucy’s affection, although he usually ignores her advances to focus on his music. • Vocal Range: Tenor (Bb2-Ab4) Piano skills a plus, but not required.
