Auditions will consist of a group dance audition, followed by individual

dress for movement, and bring your calendar with any and all conflicts from
auditions through October. Readings from the script will be held at
callbacks.


*Cast of Characters (ALL ROLES AVAILABLE):*

*Ren McCormack* (Tenor, Heavy Dance, 16 - 18)

Ren is seen as a young rebel always getting into trouble, but at heart he
is an energetic young man who is dealing with the pain of his father's
absence. He displays this pain through his quirky sarcasm and by dancing.


*Ethel McCormack* (35 - 45)

Ren's mother. She is a strong willed, outspoken single parent who would do
anything for her son.

(Singing is more traditional musical theater than other characters).


*Reverend Shaw Moore *(Baritone, 35-45)

Reverend Moore is the most powerful figure in Beaumont. He is a stern,
strict, solemn man with a booming voice who runs the town with an iron
fist. However he also has a tender side and is struggling with the loss of
his son. (Singing is more traditional musical theater than other
characters).


*Vi Moore *(Mezzo-Soprano, 35-45)

The strong-willed preacher's wife who holds the moral fiber of Beaumont in
her upright stance. She feels she is losing her husband and daughter and
doesn't know what to do. She ultimately is responsible for holding her
family together after its terrible loss.


*Ariel Moore *(Belt, Dance, 16 - 18)

She is the preacher's daughter. At first glimpse it would appear that she
is the perfect girl; beautiful, perky, energetic. But look closer and she
is her father's worst nightmare. She is energetic, strong willed, sharp
tongued, and aware of her sensuality.


*Rusty *(Comedic, Dance, 16 - 18)

Ariel's friend. A bit of a ditz but knows everything about everybody.


*Urleen *(Belt, Comedic, Dance, 16 - 18)

Ariel's friend. The smart one of the group.

Ariel's friend. Doesn't say much but sure knows a lot about Beaumont and
the town rules.

A motorcycle riding, foul mouthed, leather wearing, trailer park product
who takes one look at Ren and realizesthat there's only room for one bad
boy in this town. He is dating the one girl that Ren obviously has a crush
on, Ariel.


*Willard Hewitt *(Tenor, Comedic, Dance, 16 - 18)
