*CHARACTER BREAKDOWN*
*All roles listed are open to actors of all ethnicities and gender
identities.*

*CHARLIE BROWN:* Baritone. He is gentle, loving, insecure. A lovable loser
with endless determination and hope, but who often fails due to his
insecurities, interference from others, and a permanent case of bad luck.

*SNOOPY:* Tenor. He is Charlie Brown's pet beagle. Snoopy is owned and
cared for by Charlie Brown, although at times it is not clear who is in
charge. He is loyal, dramatic, genuinely happy, and blessed with a rich
fantasy life. He is more human-like than dog.

*LUCY VAN PELT:* Mezzo-Soprano. She is bossy, selfish, and a know-it-all.
She is not deterred by the fact that her information is often inaccurate.
She bullies and belittles others, especially Charlie Brown and Linus. She
does have a soft side, which is seen through her love for Schroeder.

*LINUS VAN PELT:* Baritone. He is Lucy’s little brother. Linus always means
well and tries to smooth over any storms that arise in the group. He is
kind-hearted, caring, and incredibly smart. In contrast to his intellectual
maturity is his reliance on his security blanket.

*SALLY BROWN:* Soprano. Charlie Brown’s younger sister. She is friendly and
sweet but can also be lazy and obsessive. Sally has a "take it easy"
approach to life, preferring to slide by while doing as little work as
possible. She is hopelessly in love with Linus.

*SCHROEDER:* Tenor. He has a precocious skill at playing the piano and an
incredible love of classical music and Ludwig van Beethoven. Lucy is
infatuated with Schroeder, but he refuses her because Beethoven was a
lifelong bachelor, and he feels he must emulate every aspect of his idol's
life. He is a close friend of Charlie Brown and is often the first one to
come to his defense. Note: Actor does not need to play the piano.
