IMMEDIATELY SEEKING:

[JASE]: 30, handsome – the quiet storm. The Robertson’s second son, an expert outdoorsman and hunter. Constantly busting Willie’s chops with a sense of humor as dry as the bayou mudflats in August. Blues-country tenor to B-flat. Guitar playing a plus. Should move well.

[ALAN]: Mid-30s to 40, the Robertson’s eldest son. A preacher by trade, Alan is also the calm, good-natured family therapist and all-around calming influence. Knows the Bible by heart, quotes it often in a deep, resonant voice that commands attention. Plays several other small roles. True bass – think Oak Ridge Boys. Should move well.

[MISSY]: 30, pretty. Jase’s wife. A spitfire always ready with a funny word, who won’t spare the rod when Jase deserves a dressing-down. Strong pop mezzo. Should move well.

[LISA]: mid-30s to 40. Alan’s wife. Perhaps the most country of the four “Duck wives.” Strong pop mezzo. Should move well.

[JEP]: Early 20s. The youngest Robertson son. Sweet, charming, and a little lazy at times. Plays several other small roles. Strong baritone. Should move well.

[JESSICA]: Early 20s. Jep’s wife. Takes things a bit too literally at times. Strong pop mezzo. Should move well.

[FEMALE SWING]: To cover an assortment of roles. Strong singer. Should move well.

[MALE SWING]: To cover an assortment of roles. Strong singer. Should move well.

All roles will be understudied.
