BREAKDOWN
ROMEO & JULIET (Broadway)
SEEKING:
MERCUTIO/ PRINCE/ FRIAR LAWRENCE/ CHORUS- 18-35. Any gender. Any ethnicity. Our storyteller and master of ceremonies. The moral center of the tale who has gathered us all for this ritual– to kill these two kids– to heal this feud. Comedic chops and strong facilities with language.
BENVOLIO/ BALTHAZER- 18-30. Any gender. Any ethnicity. Queer. A magnetic presence, unaware of their own charm.
NURSE/ MONTAGUE- 18-30. Any gender. Any ethnicity. Doubles as both a chatty lady with a big heart but not a ton of smarts and will also embody the patriarchy.
CAPULET/ LADY CAPULET- 18-30. Any gender. Any ethnicity. Doubles as both mother and father to Juliet. Capacity for scary rage and maternal care.
TYBALT/ APOTHECARY/ WATCHMAN- 18-25. Any gender. Any ethnicity. Youthful. A pent-up peacock. Has a temper that unleashes quickly and furiously.
