8 roles

CBBoth genders18-96 y.o.All ethnicities

The main character of the play. Intelligent, introspective, and depressed, questioning everything in his life including the afterlife, his social status, and his sexuality. (Male Presenting. Must kiss another male presenting performer)

BeethovenBoth genders18-96 y.o.All ethnicities

The pianist who became the school outcast prior to events in the play. A bit of a recluse, Beethoven takes solace in playing the piano, but when he and CB become romantically involved, his world is turned upside down. (Male Presenting. Must kiss another male presenting performer)

CB’s SisterBoth genders18-96 y.o.All ethnicities

The little sister who has gone Goth, at least for a portion of the play, with a crush on Beethoven. She is in the midst of "an eternal identity crisis," often trying on bold and fringe personalities and philosophies, from wiccan to punk to pirate throughout the course of the show. (Female Presenting)

VanBoth genders18-96 y.o.All ethnicities

The former philosopher turned stoner, with a worldview to match. He numbs his frequently intellectual and thoughtful mind with marijuana and as a result is often depicted as the least connected and emotionally unaffected throughout the events of the play. (Male Presenting)

MattBoth genders18-96 y.o.All ethnicities

The boy always covered in dirt in childhood is now a pathological germaphobe whose dirtiness has been internalized – he is sex-obsessed, homophobic, and terrorizes Beethoven mercilessly. He is CB’s best friend. (Male Presenting)

TriciaBoth genders18-96 y.o.All ethnicities

The former tomboy turned party girl, who professes herself to be “pretty” and “popular”. She is deeply image obsessed. Her own delusions and desperation to be perceived as "pretty" and "popular" becomes more and more transparent over the course of the play. (Female Presenting)

MarcyBoth genders18-96 y.o.All ethnicities

Still a follower and Tricia’s sidekick, now a party girl. The intellect she held in her youth has been seemingly neglected and pushed aside to make room for more important things like boys and booze. (Female Presenting)

Van’s SisterBoth genders18-96 y.o.All ethnicities

The therapist turned patient. She has been institutionalized for setting the Little Red-Haired Girl’s hair on fire. CB's on-again, off-again girlfriend before being taken away, she serves as his moral confidante and guides him as he attempts to break his status quo. (Female Presenting)
