6 roles
The leader of the group, relentlessly competitive, sometimes cruel, though she sees herself as a virtuous person. High Broadway mix with a pop quality; big range. (High C6, Low A3)
Adopted from the Ukraine as a teenager, he has thick Ukrainian dialect and a lot of rage. He is obsessed with gansgsta rap. There is a hidden, soulful romantic side. Baritenor with the ability to sing lyrical Ukrainian folk music as well rap (High E6, Low B3).
The only gay kid in Uranium. Never had a relationship. Obsessed by French New Wave cinema, he has fantasies of dying a tragic death like a French prostitute. Intellectual, biting wit, but innocence as well. Tenor with a great falsetto (High E6, Low F3). Sings in the style of a French chanteuse.
Through trauma has become mute. He discovers that in this strange purgatory, he has regained his speech. He reveals a secret inner life in which he accesses Rockstar superpowers of charisma – think Prince or Bowie. Baritone rock voice (High D6, Low B3). Basic accordion and/or tumbling a plus.
Comic chops, a big heart and a delightfully goofy and soulful way of seeing the world’s bittersweet wonder. Will do anything for friendship, allows herself to be used as a doormat. Self-deprecating, lots of pain under the pleaser façade. Dubbed “the nicest girl in town,” a title she secretly despises. Alto belt, with a rock edge (High D5, Low F3).
A mystery. Possibly the new girl at school who no one had gotten to know yet. She was decapitated in the accident, and no one claimed her body. Even though she isn’t headless in the piece (but often carries around a headless doll), the trauma of the accident leaves her discombobulated and removed. Classically trained soprano with a flexible coloratura upper range, and some grit and meat in the lower register (High F6, Low B3)
