check out ibdb.com for all the characters
drood is played by a woman, there is also rosa and princess puffer as far as female leads go
moonfall and wages of sin are 2 great songs from the show
Rupert Holmes had a fascination with Charles Dickens's unfinished novel of the same name
there are no clues as to who murdered drood in the book and that's why holmes wrote the show so that the audience voted on the ending
the reason why drrod is played as a woman is because holmes placed the show in 1873 London as if it were being done by the London Music Hall Royale it's also why there is the chairman to comment on the action.
hope this helps

yes i would say rosa bud would be the part for you. You should use the song "moonfall" as an audition peice. In the show when Rosa sings this song she is terrified because Jasper has written her this song and it's kind of creepy stalkerish hahaha so I don't know if you want to act freaked out or not during your audition but i thought i would let you know
