Character Descriptions

​

Reverend Mother Mary Regina (Mother Superior)

The strict but lovable leader of the Little Sisters of Hoboken. She’s old-school, commanding, and occasionally flustered — especially when things don’t go as planned. Strong comedic timing is essential.
Vocal Range: Mezzo/Alto.

Choreography: "Musical theatre" singer choreography
Character Type: Authoritative, funny, sometimes overconfident.

 

Sister Mary Hubert (Mistress of Novices)

Second in command — loyal, wise, and patient, but quietly competitive with the Reverend Mother. She’s nurturing with a strong sense of responsibility and often acts as the voice of reason.
Vocal Range: Mezzo/Soprano with gospel-style capabilities.
Choreography:  "Musical theatre" singer choreography and tap

Character Type: Warm, grounded, with a show-stopping belt for “Holier Than Thou.”

 

Sister Robert Anne

A tough, streetwise nun from Brooklyn with a huge heart. She’s funny, energetic, eager for a moment in the spotlight, and often steals scenes with her charisma.
Vocal Range: Mezzo with belt.
Choreography:  "Musical theatre" singer choreography and tap

Character Type: Bold, playful, comedic, high energy.

 

Sister Mary Amnesia

Sweet, innocent, and childlike — due to literally losing her memory. She’s quirky, unpredictable, and irresistibly charming. Needs strong comedic instincts and the ability to switch personalities quickly.
Vocal Range: Soprano with flexibility.
Choreography:   "Musical theatre" singer choreography and tap, also puppetry and ventriloquism would be a plus

Character Type: Goofy, lovable, unexpected powerhouse.

 

Sister Mary Leo

The youngest and most aspirational of the group — a novice who dreams of becoming the world’s first ballerina nun. Pure, hopeful, and enthusiastic, she brings sincerity and earnestness to the chaos.
Vocal Range: Soprano/Mezzo.
Choreography:  "Musical theatre" singer choreography, tap and pointe ballet

Character Type: Sweet, graceful, eager, dance-capable.​
