CHARACTER BREAKDOWN

Zach (40’s. Male)
The director and choreographer of the show for which the dancers are auditioning. He is a stage veteran and thus can be curt and harsh, but he is revealed to be a caring and empathetic man who truly grows to care about these dancers. Ideally be able to dance the opening number and demonstrate steps.

Cassie Ferguson (30-35. A3-D#5)
Seeking a strong actress who can dance and sing her face off. Returning to the chorus after years of being a featured performer. Previously had a relationship with Zach and it did not end well.

Diana Morales (22-30. G3-F#5)
Streetwise who is a little bit tough, and eternal optimist. A determined and athletic dancer from the Bronx. Sings “Nothing,” in which she reveals herself to be funny, charming, and vulnerable.

Sheila Bryant (30’s. E3-Bb4 )
One of the older dancers on the line. Confident, brassy, sassy, bratty and sophisticated. One of the more popular dancers; humorous. She has worked with Zach before.

Bobby Mills (25+ Eb3-C4)
Funny and witty. Very sharp tongued. Covers everything over with a joke; had a very hard childhood. From upstate New York.

Judy Turner (20’s G#3-E5)
Funny, gawky, nervous. Warm and hopeful. Very awkward except when dancing. Ideally seeking a taller dancer.

Val Clark (20’s G#3-C#5)
Sassy, funny. A foul-mouthed but excellent dancer who couldn’t get performing jobs because of her looks until she had plastic surgery. A brazen, direct, attention-seeker from Vermont.

Gregory Gardener (25+ D3-E4)
Quite a smart-alec and has worked with Zach before. Very East Side New York. Sassy, Jewish, gay man.

Bebe Benzenheimer (18-25. F#3-C#5)
Very insecure about her looks and tries to be funny to cover her insecurities. Feels a little excluded but just wants to be liked. She is quiet, vulnerable and kind.

Connie Wong (20’s. C4-D5)
Experienced dancer. Petite. A bit of a mother hen with a great sense of humor. Born in Chinatown, New York. Should believably play 4’10’’.

Kristine Urich (18-25. B3-Eb5)
Al’s scatter-brained wife who can’t sing. She is awkward, anxious and hilarious.

Maggie Winslow (23+. A3-A5)
A sweetheart, little sister type. Dreamer. Fairly experienced dancer from California. Seeking an incredibly warm singer with a mix belt up to E natural for the soaring climax of “At the Ballet.”

Mark Anthony (18. E3-G#4)
Optimistic; first-timer; naïve but charming. Great dancer and All-American kid.

Mike Costa (20-25. F3-G#4)
Quite aggressive, determined, cocky, sure of himself, but likeable. Tap dancer who worked with Zach before. Experienced; flirtatious. From New Jersey. Must be able to tap.

Richie Walters (23+. D3-A4 riff/falsetto ability up to E5 ideally but not required)
From Missouri. Enthusiastic, cool and very funny. Likeable and laid back. African-American; strong dancer.

Al Deluca (25+. E3-G#4)
From the Bronx. Street tough, macho, and newly married to Kristine; very protective. Seeking a strong singer, as he is the contrast to the non-singing Kristine in “Sing.”

Paul San Marco (20s. C#3-F#4)
Great actor. Introverted and slightly insecure but loves performing; only now starting to feel comfortable about being gay and accepted by his parents. From Spanish Harlem, New York. Friends with Diana. Must deliver raw and vulnerable monologue about coming out to his parents.

Don Kerr (25+. D3-F#4)
Ladies’ man, married, and into cars, money, and women. Very sure of himself. All American guy. Cocky because he has worked with Zach before. From Kansas City.

Larry (25+ Male – Tenor) This Role Has Been Cast
Zach’s assistant who teaches and demonstrates the audition dances.
