Breakdown

OLD MAX
Male, 40s-60s, any ethnicity. A trustworthy, benevolent narrator who is inspired by nostalgia. With his urbane elegance, long-limbed grace, and gently sardonic humor, he actually reminds us of Dr. Seuss. Needs a strong bass-baritone singing voice. Sings You're a Mean One. PRINCIPAL.
