14 roles
LEAD, Vocal: Mezzo-Soprano G2-E5. STRONG VOICE, ACTOR AND MOVES WELL. Arrives at North Shore High a clueless transfer student but is quickly wrapped up in brutal social politics. Though at her core Cady is levelheaded, self- assured, and kind, when she goes undercover with the Plastics, she becomes unrecognizable.
LEAD, Vocal: Tenor Bb3-G5. STRONG VOICE AND ACTOR, MOVES WELL. Co-chair of the Student Activities Committee and Janis's best friend. Damian is smart, witty and confident and occasionally serves as the show's narrator.
LEAD, Vocal: Mezzo-Soprano A3-D5. STRONG VOICE AND ACTOR. Marches to the beat of her own drum and, with Damian, narrates throughout the show. After a falling-out with Regina in middle school, she became a bit of a social outcast and still holds a grudge against Regina. Damian is her best friend and lovingly refers to her as his "art freak".
LEAD, VOCAL: Mezzo-Soprano. Ab3-Eb5. STRONG VOICE, ACTING, AND MOVEMENT. The undisputed Queen Bee of North Shore High School, and she knows it. She's confident, clever, and completely unbothered by anyone else's opinion. While Regina purposefully manipulates everyone around her, at heart, she's trying to fit in, just like everyone else.
SUPPORTING LEAD. Mezzo-Soprano. G2-E5. Strong Voice, Acting and movement. Regina's stressed out second in command. As much as Regina appears not to care what people think, Gretchen cares very much and she's especially paranoid when it comes to Regina.
SUPPORTING LEAD. Mezzo-Soprano. G2-D#5. The third member of the Plastics. While Karen's lack of intelligence is a running joke throughout the show, she sees the other girls more clearly than most people and is the most laid back of the three.
SUPPORTING LEAD. VOCAL RANGE B3-E5. A nice guy who has no idea that he's the high school heartthrob. Although he doesn't enjoy the drama of high school social politics, he gets used as a pawn between Cady and Regina though he genuinely likes Cady.
SUPPORTING. EXCELLENT ACTOR. OLDER CAST MEMBER. Cady's homeroom and calculus teacher, and she oversees the Mathletes. Though she is a bit jaded and more than a little sarcastic, Ms. Norbury sees the real Cady and encourages her to be herself. She brings it all together in the second Act for all the Jr. level girls.
