ROLES
We're seeking a cast of six to eight diverse, versatile 20 to 50 something actor / singers of all ethnicities, with large personalities, great movers, and comfortable singing in a variety of styles including jazz, pop, and country.  A willingness to improvise, take risks and interact with the audience is needed.

Tom (males and females, 20’s, all ethnicities):
An elementary school teacher who has just received his / her degree.  Nervous about facing his classroom on the first day of school, he turns to the cartoon series he so dearly loves for inspiration.  He’s skeptical at times, but never cynical.  Sings the bottom line in the score; vocal range F2 - A4.

George (male, 20 - 50):
The romantic side - caring and in control.  The leader of the group of characters.  He really wants Tom to succeed, and he has a thing for Shulie.  Sings the top line in the score; vocal range G2 - C5.

Dori (males and females, 20 - 50):
The goofy side - silly and unpredictable.  Marches to her own drummer.  Imaginative:  sometimes wacky, sometimes thoughtful.  Sings the bottom line in the score; vocal range F3 - E5.
 
Shulie (female, 20 - 50):
The sweet/intelligent side - genuine and enthusiastic.  She loves math.  A delightfully nerdy ingénue.  Sings the top line in the score; vocal range G3 - B5.
 
Joe (male, 20 - 50):
The cool side - laid back and fun-loving.  A little more grounded and mature than the rest, but still willing to be a goofball.  Sings the middle line in the score; vocal range, G2 - A4.
 
Dina (female, 20 - 50):
The mature/sassy side - the most sophisticated, thoughtful and savvy of the group.  She’ll tell you like it is, but she loves her goofy friends.  Sings the middle line in the score; vocal range F3 - E5.

We look forward to seeing you at auditions!
