TULLY - Male - 27-39 - Smooth-talking, self-deprecating playboy. He's completely content with the life he's chosen as the singer/bartender at a tropical resort until he meets Rachel, a vacationer who upends his heart. Guitar skills required.
RACHEL - Female - 27-35 - Fully committed to her job and helping the world. Willing to put in as many hours of hard work as it takes and expects everyone else to do the same. Suspicious of fools and operators, Rachel is not easily distracted from her life plan.
TAMMY - Female - 27-39 - Loyal friend to Rachel. Sees the best in people and has a zest for life that is often squelched by her fiance, Chad. Her low self-esteem manifests itself as denial in her own life.
BRICK - Male - 27-39 - The Island bartender. Has a big heart and is a good friend to Tully. Not the brightest bulb, but sensitive and thoughtful.
MARLEY - Female - 40-50 - No-nonsense and assertive with an island accent. She runs the resort and keeps everyone in check but clearly cares about her employees, her customers, and J.D., an older island denizen. Great singer.
J.D. - Male - 60-79 - A funny, endearing older man who always has a parrot on his shoulder. He's losing his vision and his hearing but won't acknowledge it. A good-natured drunkard, he's always writing his memoirs on bar napkins, and, as it turns out, he's lived a full life.
ENSEMBLE - Strong singers and movers for a variety of roles
