Musical question!!!!!?

I am in 8th grade and I'm doing Pirates of Penzance...



I got the part of Ruth... Is this a good part?



Please explain in detail...



P.S. I always play character roles... is this one of them?

Ruth is an excellent character role. She has some good comic scenes.

"Ruth is a humoristic tour-de-force for a young comedian. She should be able to play matronly but still be vibrant and full of energy. An actress who is physically different from Frederic is a great choice. For example, if your Frederic is tall and thin, consider a short and stocky Ruth. Ruth transforms from old matronly, to a knock-out beauty when she returns with the Pirate King in When Fred鈥檙ic was a little lad, so it's great to cast an actress who is versatile. Ruth has a featured solo, but doesn't have to be a polished singer. Cast a comedian who is naturally funny, and can be bigger than life. Someone who played Miss Hannigan in Annie, or Mrs. Paroo in the The Music Man would make a great Ruth."



Ruth is the half-deaf nursemaid of Frederic. She joined the pirates after mistakenly apprenticing Frederic. She's considered a lead, she's a mezzo, and has light dancing
