A newcomer from New York – “Harold Hill” type.

Baritone with a touch of “Rock & Roll” or Jerry Lee Lewis to solid high E-flat.

40-ish.  Has major sex appeal. Women become hypnotised by his manner and charm. He breaks all the rules and wins all the women over. Is sexy without being beautiful. 

A sculptress.

Belt Mezzo with good head tones or mix. Mid to late 30’s.

An artist. Creates with passion, bestowing her own individuality on each piece. Unique and yet aff ecting in her manner. Is the leader of the three women. Has a teenage son – Michael. 

A cellist.

Belt Mezzo with good head tones or mix. Mid 30’s.  

A musician who seems reserved and quiet. Has a straight-laced appearance but she can turn into a sexpot – her passion for music matches her sexual drive. Energetic with emotion. Acerbic sense of humour.

A writer.

Belt Soprano with good head tones or mix. Late 20’s or early 30’s.

A journalist who is not focused in her work. Conveniently scatterbrained from time to time. Talks faster than she thinks. She is on the shy side and a follower rather than a leader. Sees Jane and Alexandra as the sisters she never had.

Town gossip.  Eastwick’s First Lady.

Belt soprano – 40-ish

She doesn't have class but thinks she does. Veneer of happiness is always on. She has money. Does not have a close relationship with her daughter. She is the self-appointed leader of society and has an unshakeable belief that she knows what is best for the town. Her brand of dictatorship is dispensed with a saccharine sweetness. She takes an instant dislike to Darryl on his arrival in Eastwick and becomes his nemesis.

Felicia’s daughter

Light belt soprano – 18yrs.

Main juvenile lead. Direct opposite of mother. Complete natural innocence. Looks 18 yrs young. Her mother is a smothering presence. Accustomed to acting in a certain way to keep her mother happy. Felicia has tried to mould her into a “Barbie” doll for whom she will find the perfect “Ken” – it isn’t going to be Michael.

Alexandra’s son.

Lyric tenor up to A plus pop falsetto to C – 18yrs.

Main juvenile lead. Innocence with a wild edge. Has a non-conformity about him. He has naïveté and sweetness but becomes hip later on. Is more a friend to his mother than a son.

Felicia’s Husband

Character Baritone – 40-ish

A pathetic down-trodden man, who realises he is trapped in a loveless marriage. He is having an affair with Sukie. However, your sympathies are with him because of the relationship he has with his wife. He is hen-pecked but stays with Felicia because it is easier too; he is scared of her. She is also in control of all their money which demoralises him as a man. Has a good relationship with his daughter. Good voice but not a huge range.

Darryl’s servant

Singing not essential – age immaterial.

Physical extreme of exotic looks.  Bizarre – as Darryl says, “Not of this world.”

A varied and diverse group of individuals who populate the town of Eastwick. They are all “characters” and should represent a range of ages and physical types.
