5 roles
(Vocal Range - Bb2-C#5) Half-boy bat. Bat Boy is very raw and unsophisticated at the beginning of the play (after all, he has lived in a cave his entire life and has never been exposed to civilization) and can't even speak. He struggles with his identity (man vs. beast) and the prejudice and hatred of the town. Commands the stage and conveys heartbreaking truth in a tour de force role that bridges many vocal and performance styles from English Music Hall to Rock opera.
(Vocal Range - G#3-F5) The Parker's rebellious daughter. Shelley transforms from a spoiled brat into a young woman who falls in love with Edgar and protects him from the town's wrath. Has spunk, good comic timing and a strong voice.
(Vocal Range - E3-B4) A bully and Shelley's boyfriend. Raps.
Brother of Rick and Ruthie.
Sister of Rick and Ron, hospitalized from Bat-bite.
