Clue Audition Help ASAP!! Extremely important.

So, I was just informed that the school play this year will be Clue. Now, I haven't seen the movie and will not have time to watch it in order to prepare. So, I was wondering if someone could A.) Give me a description of one of the female characters and B.) Offer suggestions on monologues that show similar character traits. The director is a stickler for same-trait auditions. So, thanks so much!

Also, I am a tall, extremely skinney girl with long red hair. I have a moderate to extensive musical theater reperatoire. (sp.) So, please make suggestions according to these circumstances as well.

Is this a PLAY or "Clue: The Musical"?

The community theater I was most recently involved with did Clue:The Musical a couple years ago. I wasn't in it, but read the script and saw it.
If it Is the musical, they do it based off of the board game, not the movie.
The characters are pretty one-dimensional, and actually make reference to the fact that they live in the boardgame box. the music is not difficult, but there is no cast CD of it to listen to. I don't think any of the women's ranges are very broad, if I remember right they are all in the A to D range, pretty much everyone's mid-range. Mrs. white is an older, overworked, bitter housemaid/cook, Miss Scarlett is a sexy bombshell who uses her looks to get what she wants, and Mrs. Peacock is shrewd and scheming. In the musical there is also the role of a reporter is is a repressed, no-nonsense sort that loosens up a bit. Pictures from the community theater production:

Well, it is not the musical but simply a stage adaptation on the script from the movie. I actually had my auditions today. (I had one night to select and practice my monologue!!) I got cast as only a VERY small part. (The singing telegram girl.) But, I am extremely pleased. (There were about 60 people auditioning and I am one of the only freshman to recieve a part.) I'm pretty much giving up my entire life to lie on a stage pretending to be dead, but I'm thankful and happy.

Yeah.. haha.. that's about it... =P
