Breakdown

Seeking the following 2 roles:

Smudge:
The worrier. Has a chronic nervous stomach and worries about everything: the props, the audience, the running order. Convinced the audience won't like him and reluctant to perform. He is dyslexic regarding his left and right foot so choreography is a challenge. Underneath the nervous tics and thick glasses is a sexy matinee idol waiting to burst out - which it does when he throws off his glasses and belts out 'Rags to Riches'.

Sparky:
The 'cut-up' of the group. He is always looking for ways to crack jokes. He is very smart and loves singing his tailor made solos. He wears a retainer, and has a slight speech impediment. BARITONE to G# sings 'Perfidia' and 'Catch a Falling Star'.
