Note: Actors are not necessarily required to mimic the film directly, but they should strive to capture the nuanced essence of the original performances combined with a strong comedic take.
Clarice Starling - 25-35, Caucasian female. She is a mix of tough and sexy. West Virginian accent. Belt/mix to C (optional to E-flat). Alto/Mezzo-soprano.
Dr. Hannibal Lecter - 40s-50s, Caucasian male. An intelligent, psychiatrist with a taste for all things of class and high society, not to mention all things human. Tenor/Baritenor, to A-flat with a strong lower register. Think Evil Gilbert & Sullivan.
Buffalo Bill - 30s to early 40s, Caucasian male. Must be an extremely strong comedic actor who can do a Mid-Western accent. Baritone to G (opt. to A) with a strong lower register.
Catherine/Senator Martin/Lamb - 20s-30s, Caucasian female. Strong comedic actress. Larger physical build a plus, but not necessary. High belter with strong soprano to A/B.
Crawford/Papa Starling/Lamb - 40-50, Caucasian male. Head of FBI. Baritone/Bass to Eflat.
Dr. Chilton/Cop/Lamb - 30s-50s. Male, any ethnicity, to play the smarmy Dr. Chilton and multiple roles. Baritone to E-flat, with strong upper register.

ABOUT THE SHOW:
May 4, 2018 to May 19, 2018
Directed by Louis Farber
Do NOT touch the glass
You probably know the story: Rookie FBI agent Clarice Starling matches wits with the brilliant but insane cannibal, Dr. Hannibal Lecter, in order to catch the serial killer known as Buffalo Bill. Fueled by a rabid cult following since the songs debuted online in 2002, SILENCE! has been expanded into a live stage show. Winner of the NYCFringe’s Best Musical Award, SILENCE! THE MUSICAL combines whip-smart dialogue and shocking songs to make a raunchy, vulgar, subversive musical parody of The Silence of the Lambs that serves up just the kind of tuneful delirium you’d expect from the kitties as a season closer. “…as irreverent, filthy, and funny as BOOK OF MORMON!” – NY Post
