7 roles
The leader of the group, relentlessly competitive, sometimes cruel, though she sees herself as a virtuous person. High Broadway mix, with a pop quality; mezzo, big range.
Adopted from the Ukraine as a teenager; he has thick Ukrainian dialect and a lot of rage; he is obsessed with Gangsta Rap and an enormous fan of Auto-Tune but has a hidden, soulful romantic side. Baritenor with the ability to sing lyrical Ukrainian folk music as well as rap.
The only gay kid in Uranium; never had a relationship; obsessed by French New Wave cinema, he has fantasies of dying a tragic death. Must be able to sing in the style of a French chanteuse.
Ricky Potts is a mute boy with an overactive imagination.He gains the ability to speak in the afterlife and talks about his fantasies of the Zolarian galaxy. Baritone rock voice; basic accordion and/or tumbling a plus
Overweight, and outwardly okay with it, but also has a very deep self-loathing. Will do anything for Ocean’s friendship and allows herself to be used as a doormat; dubbed “the nicest girl in town,” a title she secretly despises. Very likable comic actress; alto belt with a rock edge.
Additional Character. She was decapitated in the accident and no one claimed her body, even though she isn’t headless in the piece (but often carries around a headless doll). She reacts in a literal way and largely without emotion, almost robot-like; the other characters are totally freaked out by her. Classically trained soprano with a flexible coloratura upper range and some grit and meat in the lower register.
Non-singing role; The narrator; a mechanical fortune-telling machine. Extremely dry wit.
