[GERRY GOFFIN] Ages from teens-late 20s in the show. Baritone/tenor. Male identifying. Carole’s boyfriend, songwriting partner, and eventual husband. Innately sympathetic, charismatic, wounded, and tortured. An ambitious artist always striving for more.

[CYNTHIA WEIL] CAST. Only seeking potential backups. Ages from teens-late 20s in the show. Strong belt. Female identifying. A songwriter who becomes romantically involved with Barry. Carole’s best friend. She is sophisticated, smart & chic with a quick wit. Although self-confident and sarcastic, she is also extremely likable.

SEEKING:

[DON LOCKWOOD]: (mid 20s-late 30s) star of the silent screen. Charismatic and open, star quality. Strong singer and dancer. A strong tapper should also have ballet technique. Baritenor voice to an F#.

[COSMO BROWN]: (mid 20s-late 30s) a clown sidekick to Don. Slapstick his specialty. Self-effacing and appealing. Down to earth. Strong singer, comedian, dancer. A strong tapper. Sings well. Tenor to an A flat.

[KATHY SELDEN]: (early to late 20s) New girl in town. Appealing—has ambitions to be a great stage actor but has singing and dancing chops. A natural for the talkies. A strong tapper. Mezzo with mixed belt to C and legit to E.

[LINA LAMONT]: (Late 20s-late 30s) a true glamorous star of the silent films. Photogenic. Incredibly self-involved and can be vindictive. As dense as she is beautiful and yes, a voice that does not match her beauty. Chest voice with a strong mix.

[R.F. SIMPSON] CAST. Only seeking potential backups. (50s-mid 60s) studio head with a strong public persona but not a lot of dimension. Always, understandably, has the studio’s best interest in mind.

[ROSCO DEXTER]: (mid 40s – mid 50s) quirky and comedic film director. A character. Struggles to transition to talkies. Non-singing role.
