Casting Boys and Girls for "Steven the Pirate: The Real Story"

A clever, resourceful young pirate with a heart of gold. Though he’s labeled a pirate, he’s more of a trickster who outsmarts greedy scoundrels to reclaim stolen treasure. Steven’s journey is one of discovery, as he learns the difference between being a true hero and being a pirate. He is adventurous, bold, and quick-witted, with a strong sense of justice. (Strong singing, acting, and movement required.)

He leads a ragtag crew of pirates who fear and respect him. He loathes being uncomfortable. He has a commanding voice and presence. (Strong acting and singing required.)

The powerful and eccentric leader of the island’s mischievous monkey tribe. Wise but unpredictable, he commands his band of monkeys with dramatic flair.

(Movement-heavy role, singing optional but a plus.)

Steven’s enthusiastic and talkative sidekick who mimics her every move. Echo is eager to prove herself as a worthy outlaw but often gets herself into hilarious trouble. She brings energy and humor to every scene. (Comedic timing, movement, and singing required.)

A tough and fearless female pirate with a sharp tongue and a quick blade (though she never actually uses it). She’s one of Captain LeMean’s most trusted fighters and has a no-nonsense attitude. (Strong acting and movement required.)

Some help Steven and Treasure, while others cause chaos. Each monkey can have a unique trait (e.g., one is always hungry, one is extra sneaky, one likes to imitate people).
