Smart, sincere and excruciatingly self-conscious, Evan prefers to hover in the background, a supporting player in his own life, too afraid to stop forward into the spotlight and risk ridicule, or, what might be worse, no one noticing him at all. Vocal range top: C5. Vocal range bottom: G2.
Evan’s mother. Overworked and stretched too thin, Heidi loves her son fiercely, but fears they have begun to grow apart. She is prepared to do anything to repair the damage. Vocal range top: Eb5. Vocal range bottom: F3.
Sensitive and sophisticated, with a sharp sense of humor, Zoe could care less about the status games and popularity rites of high school. She feels a terrible ambivalence over her brother’s death. Vocal range top: E5. Vocal range bottom: F3.
