</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;">From the moment this child walks onstage at age 5 – he is destined for greatness. His connection to the audience is instantaneous. He sings, dances and suffers great
sorrow when he returns to his mother after getting out of the County Home to find she no longer recognizes him. He later plays Jackie Coogan, the famous child actor who co-starred in “The Kid” with Chaplin and the Usher. He must be adorable, charming and funny
yet have great depth as well. Strong natural singer, unchanged voice.</span></p>

<p><strong><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: 11pt;">SYDNEY CHAPLIN:</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;"> Male (18-30) Charlie’s brother, performing partner, and business
manager. He sticks by Charlie through thick and thin, through marriages and women far too young and through political upheavals and exile. Sydney serves as a reminder of what little good their childhood had to offer and, until Oona arrives on the scene, the
only one Charlie can truly count on no matter what. Tenor/bari-tenor.</span></p>

<p><strong><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: 11pt;">HANNAH CHAPLIN</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;">: Female (20-30) Charlie’s mother. She is his inspiration – and
also his first abandonment. We first meet her as an angelic creature on the Music Hall stage but she soon deteriorates rapidly into a very troubled woman who cannot fend for her or her boys. Because she could not afford to keep their flat, Charlie and his
brother Sydney are carted away to the horrible Hanwell Orphanage. Hannah promised she’d return to get them but she never did. Once Charlie is finally released, he runs to his mother who no longer recognizes him. Hannah spent the rest of her life in and out
of asylums much to Charlie’s disgrace. Once Charlie found fame in Hollywood, his brother Sydney kept imploring him to bring Mum over from London. Time and again, Charlie keeps promising, “After this picture is finished.” Once he finally brings her over, he
barely visits her. She is the source of his first inspiration as well as his greatest humiliation. Mezzo/belt</span></p>

<p><strong><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: 11pt;">MACK SENNETT:</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;"> Male (40-65) A baritone, the master of his Keystone universe –
the rather arrogant yet perfectly knowledgeable creator of a factory of short, slapstick films. He finds Charlie in Vaudeville and gives him his first break in pictures. He helps market the Little Tramp to unparalleled fame and then loses Charlie to other
studios. </span><br>

<p><strong><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: 11pt;">ALF REEVES:</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;"> Male (20-30) A clever, intuitive, fields phone calls and starlet
requests brilliantly – and knows Charlie sometimes better than Chaplin knows himself. Must have strong comedic timing.</span></p>
<p><br>
</p>
<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;"></span>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: 11pt;">OONA O’NEIL:</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;">
</span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;"> </span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;">Female (20-30) A wannabe actress who meets Charlie when she turns up late for an audition.
Shortly thereafter, she gives up her aspirations for a career in Hollywood and becomes the first woman to appreciate Charlie for who and not what he is. Their love is true from the start and she forces him to see that love, home and family are more important
than the adoration of audiences all around the world. When Charlie makes a last-ditch effort to become the Tramp one more time, Oona has to fight hard to make him see that his Tramp years were wonderful for what they were but that they cannot last forever.
He must let go of his past to move on to his present with her and his future as the man born of film legend who will never be forgotten. Soprano</span></p>
