4 role s

NINA 1Female18-20 y.o.All ethnicities

The Child. Innocent and energetic, she is always hopeful for a brighter future. She is also the constant reminder of an idyllic past. High soprano voice.

NINA 2Female20-30 y.o.All ethnicities

The Singer. She is on the verge of success, optimistic yet cautious. She’s been burned and is a little gun shy. She finds her deepest pleasure in music.

NINA 3Male30-40 y.o.All ethnicities

The Activist. She is angry and ready to buck the system. As racial turmoil increases in the country, she becomes more personally involved. But as that mood of protest increases, she also becomes more psychologically vulnerable. A powerful soul singer.

NINA 4Female40-50 y.o.All ethnicities

The Exile. She is wise yet jaded. She has seen the way of the world and chosen to reject it, rather than continue to live amongst hypocrisy and hatred. She speaks her mind bluntly and doesn’t care who takes offense. Rich alto voice.
