5 roles
Charismatic, Sensual, Professional, Highly Intelligent. She has a slight hybrid Brooklyn-Queens/Boston accent--more a subtle NYC boroughs’ attitude, actually--despite her MIT and Harvard education. She’s funny and irreverent but low key with dry, wry intelligent humor.
Strong mover. A human portraying an African Grey parrot, Puck-like with a deep reserve of inner life.
Dr. Howard Towers (30s to 60s) an Ivy League, Jewish, educated scientist with a strong Bronx accent. Doubles as Dr. Rick Pepperberg (30s to 40s) a preppie Midwestern Ivy League educated Jewish scientist and Irene's husband. NOTE: May double other roles in the chorus if needed.
Puerto Rican. A dolphin scientist and Irene's best friend. She has almost the same style as Irene--sophisticated and sensual. Funny. Intelligent. Doubles some roles in the chorus as indicated, mostly in Part I.
All three chorus tracks will double multiple roles. Chameleonic, with strong movement and comedic skills.
