9 roles
An offer is out on this track. Middle C–High A (belt) [ROCK TENOR], 18+ to play high school age. The new kid in town. By day, Mark is a shy outsider, too timid to speak his mind; at night, he’s “Hard Harry,” the raucous Pirate Radio Shock Jock who’ll say or do anything to provoke the powers-that-be. Harry has a glint in his eye; impulsive, gleeful and edgily demonic.
Low F–High E (belt) [ROCK ALTO], 18+ to play high school age. Fierce, independent-minded, “downtown” girl whose mouth gets her in trouble, a revolutionary enraptured by Harry’s reckless abandon.
Low C to high G# or A (belt) [ROCK BARI-TENOR], 18+ to play high school age. Rough-and-tumble rebel who won’t take crap from anybody; Harry’s first fan, Mazz is a lovable tough guy who runs a successful underground business hocking Hard Harry merch.
Low G–High Eb (belt/mix). Upper-crust, hard-working valedictorian who some kids might call a prude. In her sweater sets and pearls, Paige is initially the lone holdout from the vile “cult” of Hard Harry — but, as the story progresses, she opens her eyes to the complicated, messy world around her, developing a new, stronger sense of self.
Low G–High D (belt/mix). Sassy and gossipy Hard Harry groupie; Tracie’s best friend.
Low G–High D (belt/mix) (plus an operatic High C). Stacey’s best friend; not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
Middle C–High G# (belt). A Hard Harry hanger-on. A dude’s dude.
Middle C–High G# (belt). Looking for a unique, youthful and authentic individual to represent other high school students inspired by Harry who need to have their voices heard. Any type.
Low G-High Eb (belt/mix). Looking for a unique, youthful and authentic individual to represent other high school students inspired by Harry who need to have their voices heard. Any type.
