Miss Tracy Mills, male, 40s-50s. An elegant and talented drag queen. Sassy and funny but takes her job very seriously. A consummate professional with a nurturing side. NOTE: Performers with drag experience encouraged to audition.

Rexy/Jason, male, 20s-30s, Basic roller skating.

-Rexy is a younger drag queen and the protégée of Tracy. She’s a good performer when she can hold her liquor and pills. Her devil-may-care attitude belies a difficult youth. NOTE: Performers with drag experience encouraged to audition.

- Jason, is Casey’s best friend and landlord. He’s a laid-back dude, but he likes to have the rent paid on time. NOTE: Rexy and Jason are not the same character, but they are played by the same actor.

Eddie, male, 50s-60s, Tracy’s cousin and Casey’s employer. Owner of a not-too-successful bar in Panama City Beach, FL. A terrible MC who eventually develops some flair with guidance from his cousin.
