It’s a dark and stormy night, and we’ve been invited to a very unusual dinner party. Each of the guests has an alias, the butler offers a variety of weapons, and the host is, well, dead. So whodunit? Join the iconic oddballs known as Scarlet, Plum, White, Green, Peacock, and Mustard as they race to find the murderer in Boddy Manor before the body count stacks up. Based on the cult classic film and the popular board game, Clue is a madcap comedy that will keep the audience guessing until the final twist.
Clue (High School Edition) — Cast List
WADSWORTH – A traditional British butler in every sense: uptight, formal and “by the book.” He is the driving force in the play.
YVETTE – A loyal French maid.
MISS SCARLET – A dry, sardonic D.C. socialite, more interested in secrets.
MRS. PEACOCK – The wealthy wife of a senator. A bit batty, neurotic and quick to hysteria.
MRS. WHITE – A pale, morbid and tragic woman. Mrs. White may or may not be the murderer of her five ex-husbands.
COLONEL MUSTARD – A puffy, pompous military man.
PROFESSOR PLUM – An arrogant academic, easily impressed by himself.
MR. GREEN – A timid, yet officious, rule follower. He’s awfully anxious.
ENSEMBLE WOMAN, plays:
THE COOK – A gruff woman with a threatening presence. (Alive and Dead.)
SINGING TELEGRAM GIRL – A tap dancer with a heart of gold. (Alive and Dead.)
AUXILIARY SCARLET – The back of Miss Scarlet during a scene of theatrical trickery. (Can also be played by an offstage cover.)
BACKUP COP – Backup for the Chief in the very final “Cops” entrance.
ENSEMBLE MAN 1, plays:
MR. BODDY – A slick, Frank Sinatra, film noir-esque type fella. (Alive and Dead.)
THE MOTORIST – A professional driver. (Alive and Dead.)
CHIEF OF POLICE – A cop who helps to save the day.
ENSEMBLE MAN 2, plays:
THE UNEXPECTED COP – A regular joe. (Alive and Dead.)
BACKUP COP – A backup for the Chief.
AUXILIARY MUSTARD – The back of Colonel Mustard during a scene of theatrical trickery. (Can also be played by an offstage cover.)
Note: An additional body to play the DEAD MOTORIST in the Lounge during Scene 11 is required. Perhaps an understudy or ASM can fill in for this sixty-second moment of comedic razzle-dazzle.
