BREAKDOWN
Saunders
Male, late 50s, any ethnicity - High-strung American producer. He's had success but worked very hard for it and it shows.
Max
Male, 30s, any ethnicity - Rising American opera singer and former assistant to Saunders. Smart, level-headed and quick with a joke. Should also sing well.
Maria
Female, early 50s, Italian - Stunning wife to one of Italy's most famous opera singers. Big personality, explosive temper. Italian accent.
Tito/Beppo
Male, 50s, Italian - Tito is one of Italy's most famous opera singers. Regal in appearance, fiery in nature. Has a bit of a diva complex and is a horribly jealous person. Italian accent. The same actor plays Beppo, a bellhop - joyous and full of life, as down to earth as Tito is regal. Strong tenor.
Mimi
Female, 20s, Italian-American - Bright-eyed star hoping to be discovered. She is the daughter of Tito and Maria and while they still think of her as their little girl, she is definitely coming into her own. America accent.
Carlo
Male, 20s, Italian - Dashing, young opera impresario who is in love with Mimi but seen as a threat to her father's career. Speaks English very well. No detectable Italian accent and must be a strong tenor
Racon
