Character Description:


 

               Today, Rick is miffed because JOEY would only let him come to
the wedding "under cover" as the videographer. Although JOEY explains that
this way they can be together without people thinking they are "together,"
Rick sees it as a cowardly move. As the evening wears on, he begins to see
JOEY in a new light. JOEY cracks snide remarks about people and makes faces
behind his mom's back. He gets over-serious when one of his "works" is going
to be danced by Tina and her bridesmaids. He even becomes embroiled in the
ancient feud between the families he's supposed to be "better" than.

 

Track Sheet-Joey Vitale

Character Description:


          Alone in his bedroom, Joey wasn't listening to heavy metal bands,
overheating with visions of pre-teen girls grabbing for his clothes.  Nor
was he reading Tom Swift or the Hardy Boys dreaming of inventions and
sleuthing.  No, Joey's room rocked with the sounds of "The Music Man," and
when he danced before the mirror it was to a Broadway crowd.  And when it
came to reading, for Joey it was Dumbo-the story of the elephant who cried
because his big ears made him the laughing stock of the whole circus.  But
Dumbo became a sensation when those silly ears made him able to fly.  And
whenever Joey felt blue because he couldn't live up to his father's
expectations, or hurt as his mom tried to cut him from her apron strings,
Joey would remember Dumbo and vow someday that he too would fly.  He kept
his vow.  As soon as he entered high school, his ears started flapping.  He
discovered that he could sing and dance like nobody else, making him a
celebrity on campus.  He also discovered that he was gay, leading him to a
secret life of weekend trips to the nearest town with a gay population.  His
reputation as an enigmatic artist grew and soon he even began to perform at
community theatres-a feat unheard of for a student at Christ the King High.
For those precious gold days, Christ the King High was Joey the King
High-and it seemed it would never end.
