Breakdown
CURRENTLY SEEKING:
WILLIE
late-20s, athletic build. Our hero, smart as a whip with a keen business acumen. Takes over the family shop with wife Korie and morphs it into a multinational juggernaut. The “responsible” son (third of four kids) doomed to play the straight man while the rest of the family cracks wise – often at his expense. Nonetheless, Willie possesses a quick wit and patient hand. Solid comic instincts and fantastic pop tenor to B-flat. Should move well.
KORIE
late-20s, statuesque, former cheerleader type. Korie grew up “on the right and side of the tracks” in an upscale Louisiana home, met Willie at summer camp, and immediately fell for his unrefined charms. They married straight out of high school, just as Korie shipped off to college, where she earned a degree in business administration. A real beauty-and-brains situation here. Quick wit, great mother. Fantastic pop belt to E. Should move well.
MISS KAY
50s, plump. Married to Phil since she was 16 years of age – about as country and gentle as a woman can get, but with an endless well of inner strength, wry sense of humor, and penchant for the naughty double entendre. The great difficulty she faced early in her marriage fills her with power and pride, not sorrow. Soulful country belt to D. Should move well.
UNCLE SI
Phil’s younger brother, 40s, skinny, missing a few teeth. A court jester in camouflage – master of hyperbole, expert wielder of the malapropism, and unlikely sex object. Veteran of three tours of Viet Nam and devoted husband (although his wife never appears in the show). Baritone. Ridiculous comic chops.
PHIL ROBERTSON
50s, tall, sturdy. The Robertson paterfamilias. While his backwoods, long-bearded looks suggest an ignorant bumpkin, Phil is in fact a former football star and genius inventor, whose revolutionary Duck Commander duck call made him a millionaire. A reformed alcoholic and hellion who is now a Bible-thumping preacher man, Phil’s traditional beliefs keep bumping up against modern society in ways that confound and frustrate him – although he maintains a dark sense of humor and never, ever loses his temper. Baritone to A. Should move well.
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.
