A gentle giant. Think of him as a big-hearted blue collar guy who is steadfast and responsible and always tries to do the right thing for his friends. He is imaginative and receptive to the world around him that he believes is a good world.

THE BIRD GIRLS are Mayzie’s harmony-singing entourage who appear frequently through the whole show.
