AUDITIONS: Ride The Cyclone

Directed by Devan Eagan
In this hilarious and outlandish story, the lives of six teenagers from a Canadian chamber choir are cut short in a freak accident aboard a roller coaster. When they awaken in limbo, a mechanical fortune teller invites each to tell a story to win a prize like no other — the chance to return to life. This popular musical is a funny, moving look at what makes a life well-lived!

All roles available (except for Virgil the Rat)
THE AMAZING KARNAK� [Male presenting - 35-50] �non-singing role; the narrator; a mechanical fortune-telling machine.
OCEAN O'CONNELL ROSENBERG� [Female presenting - 18-25] �The leader of the group, relentlessly competitive, sometimes cruel, though she sees herself as a virtuous person; high Broadway mix, with a pop quality; big range.
MISHA BACHINSKI [�Male presenting - 18-25] �Adopted from the Ukraine as a teenager; he has a thick Ukrainian dialect and a lot of rage; he is obsessed by Gansgsta Rap (an enormous fan of the auto-tune phenomena); there is a hidden, soulful romantic side; Baritenor with the ability to sing lyrical Ukrainian folk music as well as rap.
NOEL GRUBER� [Male presenting - 18-25] �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 [�Male presenting - 18-25] �Begins the play wordless and on crutches; suffers from a degenerative disease that has left him speechless and mostly immobile; he discovers at the beginning of the play that in this strange purgatory, he has regained all of these abilities. Baritone rock voice.
CONSTANCE BLACKWOOD [�Female presenting - 18-25] �Overweight, and outwardly okay with it, but there is 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 range.
JANE DOE� [Female presenting - 18-25] �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 contestants are totally freaked out by her. Classically trained soprano with a flexible coloratura upper range, and some grit and mean in the lower register.
