3 roles
A young boy with a wild imagination and a knack for thinking outside the box, JoJo is a “Thinker.” While he may be a bit awkward, a bit of a loner, or simply a rambunctious kid, his unique perspective often leads him into constant trouble. However, in the end, his “Thinks” prove to be the key to saving his planet.
Three monkey brothers and citizens of the Jungle of Nool. These are not bad guys! They're simply a lot like kids who tease, play pranks, and get a kick out of making mischief, although often at others' expense. (Looking for actors with strong vocal skills who are athletic with strong dance or movement skills)
Three sassy birds and citizens of the Jungle of Nool. Beautiful and Fun, they are the popular girls -a clique of pretty, self-centered "back up birds" who do whatever Mayzie does."
