Seeking:
Maddie:

Brynn:
15, is the leader of her group of friends. She has always been somewhat maternal and, in the face of being overshadowed by her older sister, wants to be as mature as she can be. Clear pop/rock mezzo, belts up to E.
Kaylee:
16, is the second in command. She is full of attitude, brash and confrontational and always trying to shock. Rich pop/rock soprano, belts up to F.
Jeanelle:
15, is as innocent as any teenager can reasonably be expected to be. She’s also slightly neurotic and over-emotional and has trouble being forceful. Bright pop/rock mezzo, belts up to D.
Cory:
16, is a somewhat reserved boy who works at the local movie theater concession stand. He has a problem with acne and girls. Pop/musical theatre tenor.
Sansanee:
17, is the queen of the school. She won’t put up with bullshit from anyone. Pop/rock mezzo, belts up to D.
Jenn:
16, is Sansanee’s lackey. She’s a gossip who is eager to please, at least when it comes to Sansanee. Pop/rock alto, belts up to C.
Justin:
17, is Jeanelle’s boyfriend. He’s nice enough but can be a jerk to her. Pop baritone. (The actor playing Justin will double as other men in the show).
