9 roles
Strong and unique pop/folk singer (think Indigo Girls). At 13, she is the president and founder of The Baby-sitter's Club. The second youngest with three brothers and a single mom, Kristy is a natural leader: resourceful, creative, practical, bossy and forthcoming with her opinions. She favors jeans, turtlenecks, sweaters and baseball caps over make-up and dresses.
Strong and unique pop/folk singer (think Indigo Girls). At 13, Mary Anne is a rule follower. On the shy side, she follows strict guidelines put in place by her father - a widower since Mary Anne was a baby. Her fashion and personal style still live more in “little girl” world than “teenager” world, though she wishes she could branch out a bit. She is an excellent student, very organized, conflict-averse, and very shy around boys.
Strong and unique pop/folk singer (think Indigo Girls). Claudia is the free spirit of the BSC. Artistic, creative, a little mischievous and committed to a distinctive personal style, Claudia is unapologetically herself. Despite being a brilliant visual artist, she is a terrible student - an uncomfortable reality for her parents and (genius) older sister Janine to reconcile.
Strong and unique pop/folk singer (think Indigo Girls). Stacey grew up in New York City and moved to Stoneybrook at the beginning of seventh grade. She gets attention for her looks, her height (not a casting deal breaker) and her big city sophistication. As the ‘new girl’, she concealed her Diabetes due to the fact that her diagnosis had been met with scorn and derision by her New York friends. But her BSC friends carry no judgment towards her illness, and she finds their acceptance refreshing.
