BREAKDOWN
Ren McCormick
Able to portray High School student. Male, Tenor - Strong-willed, rebellious and full of teenage hormonal aggression. Raised in liberal Chicago and suddenly finds himself in the conservative mid-west. Copes with these new, oppressive surroundings with a wry sense of humor.
Ariel Moore
Able to portray High School student. Female, Mezzo - Small town girl fighting to break out. Strong, smart and maybe a bit angsty, she is always finding ways to rebel against her father, who tries to keep her under lock and key.
Willard Hewitt
Able to portray High School student. Male, Bari-Tenor - The village puppy-dog. Loyal and a little dim, but ready to defend anyone's honor. Shy around girls.
Rusty
Able to portray High School student. Female, Soprano/Mezzo - Ariel's Friend. Fun-loving motor mouth. Loyal to her friends. Full of quirks, and nervous around Willard, who she's been crushing on for years.
Urleen
Able to portray High School student. Female, Mezzo - Ariel's friend. Savvy, smart and quirky. Unafraid to go after what she wants.
Wendy Jo
Able to portray High School student. Female, Mezzo - Ariel's friend. She may not be the smartest of her gang, but that doesn't diminish her confidence... Funny and full of personality.
Reverend Shaw Moore
Male, 40's-early 50s, Baritone - Spiritual leader and a powerful influence in the town. Deals with the loss of his son through overzealous piety. This causes a rift with his daughter Ariel, who is openly rebelling against him. Has unknowingly fallen into a pious trap, but is ultimately trying to do the right thing...
Vi Moore
Female, 40's-early 50s, Mezzo - Rev. Moore's wife. Living in her husband's shadow, though silently powerful. Ultimately, she finds her voice and becomes the agent of change for her husband.
Ethel McCormick
Female, 40's, Mezzo - Ren's Mother. Dealing with the fallout from her divorce, and finding herself in a very different place than Chicago. Strong-willed, but now in a place where she's constantly being told to be quiet. Protective of her son and her values, but unable to break free of her circumstances. For vocal auditions, Ethel should prepare a musical theater song of their choice in the style of the show
