We bought a copy of the script on Amazon many years ago.

Claire is one of the dreamers. I don't know if she has any lines, but she sings with the other dreamers. She is the wife of Major Holmes, they both die right at the beginning of the show, when everyone in the area dies of cholera, except Mary who is sent to England to stay with her mother's brother Archibald.

You waited 11 minutes to wait for an answer?

I imagine if you were cast as Claire then you will be getting a script. And your director can probably answer all your questions.

That is the script...the one you'll...er...eventually get at rehearsal...unless you get rental material from the company I know of no other way you can learn all your music before rehearsal begins...I'm really confused about that...

My daughter has only had to have everything memorized before rehearsals start when it is a professional show. And then they gave her the music and a script.

If they don't give it to you, they can't expect you to have it memorized.

Claire is kind of mean, she is like Rose.

I get the script next week but rehersal starts in 2 weeks and i dont think that is enough time to learn the whole script so I need to know what the muscial is about, where i can get a FREE script (printable) and I need to know where I can get music

The link that ConverseSneaker provided will give you the script online.


Claire has maybe three or four spoken lines, most of the role is singing with the other Dreamers and a couple solo sung lines.
Claire isn't really mean, she is rather neutral. She is one of the Dreamers... people from Mary Lennox's life in India whose spirits help her to find her way in her new life in England.
Two weeks should be plenty of time to read the script and play through the music to become familiar with it. Some of the musical pieces (chorus) I can't imagine anyone learning without the MD to assist, they are a bit difficult.
