You only need to read ONE of the sides for one of the roles. Have fun with it – they are really just quick one-liners! -Please also include any clips of you playing (even from a gig) that would demonstrate the jazz style of Vince Guaraldi. (There are some from the show included in this packet., if you would like to use them, but anything you can send our way that demonstrates your skill level will do). -If you sing, feel free to sing a brief cut of a song of your choice. If you do not, don’t worry about it. These tracks may sing as a part of the ensemble, but it isn’t required! If you are called back for an in-person callback on 9/23 or 9/24, you will be emailed further instructions for callbacks.

FRIEDA SIDES

FreidaisvainandgirlyandtalksaboutherNaturallyCurlyRedhair.

Side #1

Frieda

(Bouncing her curls in her hand) Did innkeepers’ wives have naturally curly hair?

Side #2

Frieda I can’t go on. There’s too much dust. It’s taking the curl out of my naturally curly hair.

Charlie Brown Don’t think of it as dust. Think of it as maybe the soil or some great, past civilization. Maybe the soil

of ancient Babylon. It staggers the imagination. You may be carrying soil that was trod upon by Solomon. Or even Nebuchadnezzar.

Pig Pen Sort of makes you want to treat me with more respect, doesn’t it?

Frieda You’re an absolute mess. Just look at yourself.

VIOLET & PATTY SIDES

Violet is not very nice. She thinks Charlie Brown is a walking disaster. Patty (not Peppermint Patty) is Violet's best friend who talks about how much they don't like Charlie Brown.

Charlie Brown Thanks for the Christmas card you sent me, Violet.

VioletI didn’t send you a Christmas card, Charlie Brown.

PattyTry to get snowflakes on your tongue. It’s fun.

Violet Oh no, we’re doomed!

Patty This will be the worst Christmas play ever.

Patty Yeah. Do something right for a change, Charlie Brown.

VioletBoy, are you stupid, Charlie Brown.

Patty What kind of a tree is that?

Violet I told you he’d goof it up.

He’s not the kind you can depend on to do anything right. Patty

You’re hopeless, Charlie Brown.

FRANKLIN & PIG PEN SIDES

Lucy Franklin, you’re a shepherd.

FRANKLIN Every Christmas it’s the same. I always end up playing a shepherd.

PIG PEN

PigPenisknownforbeingconstantlydirty,insultedconstantlybyeverybody.

Heisverycoolandacceptshimselfregardless. Side#1

Lucy

Pig Pen, you’re the innkeeper. Pig Pen

In spite of my outward appearance, I shall try to run a neat inn. Side #2

Frieda I can’t go on. There’s too much dust.

It’s taking the curl out of my naturally curly hair. Charlie Brown

Don’t think of it as dust. Think of it as maybe the soil or some great, past civilization. Maybe the soil of ancient Babylon. It staggers the imagination. You may be carrying soil that was trod upon by

Solomon. Or even Nebuchadnezzar. Pig Pen

Sort of makes you want to treat me with more respect, doesn’t it? Frieda

You’re an absolute mess. Just look at yourself. (Frieda hands her hand mirror to Pig Pen)

Pig Pen On the contrary, I didn’t think I looked that good.
