Breakdown
SEEKING:
[ELIZABETH] Female, late 30s, any ethnicity. Newly single and newly returned to New York City, where she was a grad student years ago, eager to start her life over and determined to get it right this time. In recovery from a long, bad marriage, she’s capable but not always confident, ambitious but often anxious. Smart, straightforward, deliberate, hungry for joy but afraid it may never come. Low G-flat with a belt to a high E-flat. Along with big belt, must have ability to float and mix higher notes. PRINCIPAL: ROLE IS CAST – SEEKING UNDERSTUDIES ONLY
[KATE] Female, 30s – 40s, any ethnicity. A native New Yorker, incurable romantic, and tough-as-sparkly-nails kindergarten teacher, she manages to be a fancy lady, a fierce friend, an unapologetic feminist, and a pal to all. Tends to see the best in everyone and to strike up conversations with strangers. Big belt to an E with a nice mix. PRINCIPAL
[JOSH] Male, late 30s – early 40s, any ethnicity. Raised in the midwest, trained in medicine, tempered by two tours as an Army doctor. Confident in his work, but less so in his love life, he feels a little out of step in New York City. Steady, pragmatic, plainspoken, but with a calm, gentle humor. Tenor. Belt to an A/B-flat. PRINCIPAL
[LUCAS] Male, late 30s, any ethnicity. An activist, blogger, urban farmer, homesteader, barista, and citizen of the world. Intelligent and ideological, well-read and well-spoken, dedicated to fighting injustice and dismissive of normative values, be they political or personal. Sexually flexible. Baritone. Belt to an A-flat. PRINCIPAL
[STEPHEN] Male, late 30s – early 40s, any ethnicity. A charismatic, confident mover and shaker in city government. Passionate about the issues but wise to political reality, he's smart and somewhat glib, idealistic but also slick. An operator. Attractive, and he knows how to use it. High baritone/low tenor. Belt to an A-flat or A. PRINCIPAL
[ANNE] Female, 30s – 40s, any ethnicity. Kate’s girlfriend, and then wife, and in many ways her perfect counterpart. Logical, frank, calm, unflappable, with a more grounded energy, and a more practical nature, but a heart just as big as her lover’s. Quite at home in her body and in touch with her sexuality. Belt to a D with a nice mix. PRINCIPAL
[DAVID] Male, 30s, any ethnicity. Lucas’ boyfriend. Charming but not glib, handsome but not unattainable, smart but without the need to show it. A successful surgeon who’s ready to meet the right man, settle down, and start a family, he’s got fairly traditional values—but doesn’t require them in a mate. Belt to A-flat/A. PRINCIPAL
