​WHAT TO PREPARE:  One 20-32 measure cut in the sytle of the show.  One joke or short comedic momologue.  Actors auditioning for only the role of teacher do not need to sing.

​SYNOPSIS:  The whole gang is here:  Bossy Lucy is hopelessly in love with piano prodigy Schroeder who doesn't give her the time of day; perfoectionist Sally is till mocking blanket-toting Linus; Snoopy is in the doghouse; and "blockhead" himself, Charlie Brown, is in rare form.  Brief vignettes, spanning the months from Valentine's Day to Beethoven's birthday, range from wild optimism to utter despair!  Whether you're keen to fly with the Red Baron, moon over the Moonlight Sonata, or just do your best to find "happiness", You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown ​is a crowd-pleasing classic.  ​
