Actor Auditions for Clue Onstage

Penfold Theatre Company

United States United States, Round Rock
Posted on: Apr. 01, 2026

Description:

It's a dark and stormy night, and you'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 you guessing until the final twist.

Written by Sandy Rustin
Based on the screenplay by Jonathan Lynn with additional material by Hunger Foster and Eric Price
Directed by Steven Pounders

Auditions will be held at Penfold Theatre, 2120 N. Mays St, Ste #290 Round Rock, TX 78664.

Character/Actor Breakdown:

• 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 and sexy French maid.
• MISS SCARLET: A dry, sardonic D.C. madam, more interested in secrets than sex.
• 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, dense, blowhard of a 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), the singing telegram girl (a tap dancer with a heart of gold), auxiliary Scarlet (the back of Miss Scarlet during a scene of theatrical trickery), and backup cop (backup for the chief)
• ENSEMBLE MAN 1: Plays Mr. Boddy (a slick, Frank Sinatra, film noir-esque type fella), the motorist (a professional driver), and the chief of police (a cop who helps save the day)
• ENSEMBLE MAN 2: Plays the unexpected cop (a regular joe), backup cop (a backup for the chief), and auxiliary mustard (the back of Colonel Mustard during a scene of theatrical trickery)

Note: We are building a diverse ensemble for this production of Clue and strongly encourage actors of all races, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, and body types to audition.
