| Audition Dates: Monday, March 8th and Tuesday, March 9th @ 7PM Auditions Will Be Held At The Antrim Playhouse 15 Spook Rock Rd. Wesley Hills, NY 10901 |
The main character - the protagonist - is The Korean War. Actors
should develop characters in relation to the war, and their feelings
about it.
**We encourage actors of color to audition for major roles**
Cast of Characters:
Captain Capt. John “Trapper” McIntyre / Benjamin Franklin
“Hawkeye” Pierce / Augustus Bedford Forrest “Duke”
The above actors are in their late 20’s - 30’s. They are not in the War
by choice, so they rebel any time they can. Their pranks are angry, not
cute and funny. When they perform their medical jobs, they are
thorough professionals, yet remain unwilling military men. “Ugly” is
anything but and instead quite handsome.
Pvt. Boone: 25-35, unquestioning order follower, nervous, clumsy,
frightened.
Lt. Louise Kimble: 25-35, strong willed Nurse.
Colonel Henry Braymore Blake: Regular Army, but the chaos has
worn him down so that he doesn’t bother with spit and polish details;
his focus is on the medicine. The easygoing commanding officer of
the 4077th. Blake’s laid-back manner sharply contrasts those who
prefer strict military discipline, such as Burns and Houlihan. All in
all, Henry is a good person and a capable doctor, but not a very
forceful or competent commanding officer.
Captain Bridget McCarthy: 30’s. Efficient and capable nurse. Very
focused on her job.
Lt. Janice Fury: 25-35. Young and attractive Nurse.
Sergeant Divine: Male, 40+. 4077th’s Cook.
Captain Walter “Walt” Waldowski: 30’s. A bit plodding, but
pleasant; not very bright, but good at his job.
Margaret Houlihan, Frank Burns: Regular Army; inflexible on
tiny, unnecessary points of protocol. He is hopeless, she, at least,
respects medical brilliance.
General Hamilton Hartington Hammond: 40’s and up. Abusive,
caustic, loud.
Father John Patrick Mulcahy: mid 40s and up. Irish Chaplain of
the 4077th. While most of the staff is not religious, they treat
Mulcahy with some respect.
Corporal “Radar” O’Reilly: 20-30. Young, small, and intuitive. He
has extra-sensory perception and exceptionally good hearing, able to
hear incoming helicopters before anyone else.
Lt. Louise Kimble: 25+. Strong willed Nurse
Ho-Jon: 14-17. Young Korean boy. Loyal, eager to learn and
participates in the daily shenanigans of Hawkeye, Trapper and Duke.
It is later revealed that he is drafted into the South Korean Army just
to return to the 4077th as a patient.
Pvt. Lopez: Male. 25-35
Lt. Nancy Phillips: 25-35. Very sensitive nurse who is easily bullied
by Burns and deeply affected by the War.
Congresswoman Goldfarb: 35+. Small but important role.
Dean Mercy Lodge: 45+. Dean of a college
Miss Randazzle: 20-35. Secretary
Mitzi , Fritzi and Agnes: Early 20’s. These three young cutie-pies
bring some comic relief in Act II. Adorable, dippy and talentless,
these U.S.O. tap-dancing flunkies make the males of the 4077th swoon
and the women nauseous.
Lt. Connie Liebowitz: 30+. Psychiatric nurse
Captain Oliver Wendall “Spearchucker” Jones: 25-35. African
American doctor and football legend. Received his nickname from
breaking the javelin record in college
Major Ruth Haskell: 40+. Psychiatrist. Hides under desk; a bit
diminutive.
Various roles for men & women 17 and older who can play Asian
parts
