The Characters of the Play

Marian Ames
A still-glamorous MGM star with 17 years in Hollywood, Marian has endured four consecutive film flops and is being “put out to pasture.” Determined not to wallow in self-pity, she gathers her friends from the Hollywood Canteen to head to London. She serves as the show’s leading woman and star vehicle, bringing glamour, determination, and a touch of Hollywood star power.

Jo Sterling
Marian’s stand-in on 17 films, Jo is a dependable and energetic performer. She contributes to the show’s lively, USO-style energy.

Katie Gammersflugel
Marian’s skittish niece, Katie is a lively and perhaps a bit nervous character. Her personality adds comic relief and a fresh, youthful energy to the group.

Topeka Abotelli
The personification of Rosie the Riveter, Topeka is the dependable, steady presence in the ensemble. Her role highlights the resilience and skill of women in wartime industries.

Lilly McBain
A leggy chorus girl, Lilly brings glamour and showmanship to the group. Her character embodies the starlet image of the 1940s, adding both visual flair and a touch of Hollywood romance.
