May 28-June 14

Set in the city of London, Dalmatian parents Pongo and Perdita raise their 15 Dalmatian puppies in a small house, along with their human pets, Roger (a composer) and Anita (an artist). One day when Cruela De Vil spots the Dalmatian puppies, she is dazzled by their spotted fur and decides that their fur would be perfect for her new fur coat! As the puppies get lured away, Pongo and Perdita must summon the other dogs of London, as well as Sergent Tibbs, to help rescue the puppies from Cruella. You'll love the magic of 101 Dalmatians!

Including favorites "Dalmatian Conga" and "Cruella De Vil."


CAST LIST

CRUELLA DE VIL -ย  a strong actor, singer and mover; should be a natural leader with dramatic flair who is unafraid to be mean and bossy.

ROGER - Roger is a songwriter and owner of the Dalmatians. He is soft spoken yet confident and displays leadership in a quiet and composed way, contrary to frenetic Cruella.

ANITA - Anita is the sweet, nurturing owner of the Dalmatians and a painter. This role requires a strong actor with a good singing voice.

HORACE AND JASPER - Horace and Jasper provide comic relief a la Abbott & Costello or Laurel & Hardy; should be good singers and strong actors.

NARRATORS - Canine Narrators should have loud speaking voices and strong stage presence.ย 

PONGO AND PERDITA - Pongo and Perdita are the Dalmatian parents; require good actors, but not necessarily strong singers.

SERGEANT TIBBS - Sergeant Tibbs is the army cat who rallies the London Dogs to rescue the Dalmatian Puppies. This role can be played either by a girl or a boy; can double as Narrator.

THE LONDON DOGS - The London Dogs are the "ethnic" dogs who help rescue the Dalmatian Puppies from Cruella; should be strong singers and movers with a willingness to do a British, Scottish, French or Spanish accent.

DALMATIAN PUPPIES - Patch, Lucky, Penny, Pepper and other Dalmatian Puppies are the often funny and spirited puppies of Pongo and Perdita.ย 

NANNY - Nanny is the warm yet outspoken housekeeper to Roger and Anita; small acting role that requires a strong speaking voice.

THE POLICE OFFICER - The Police Officer arrests the villains at the end of the show; a small acting role that requires a strong speaking voice, but not necessarily a strong singer.

THE DOGCATCHER - The Dogcatcher appears at the end of the show to dramatically remove Cruella from the scene. Although it's a small role, it's a favorite because it's funny.

OTHER DALMATIAN PUPS - Other Dalmatian Pups are discovered in the fur vault. Spot and Dot are smaller, one-line parts.
