About the Show
One of the most popular and successful musicals in recent memory, this deliciously goofy revue centers on four young, eager male singers killed in a car crash in the 1950s on the way to their first big concert, and now miraculously revived to fulfill their dreams and perform the show that never was.

Casting (4 Males, ages 20-40)
All men must be strong part singers.

Francis (Second Tenor-Lyric Baritone): The leader and caretaker of the group. He has the most confidence. He takes care of his fellow PLAIDS and makes sure that everyone knows where they're supposed to be and what is supposed to happen next.

Jinx (High Tenor): The shy one. He is terrified. He doesn't always remember what song comes next or what the next move is. The others are very protective of him. He transforms during "Cry" and sheds his fears to be the star we always thought he could be. After "Cry" he has metamorphosed from being a timid boy to a more confident man.

Smudge (Bass): The worrier. He worries about the props, about the running order and always assumes that the audience won't like him. He has a chronic nervous stomach. He is very reluctant to perform. He is also dyslexic when it comes to telling his left foot from his right. At the top of the play he wanted to skip the whole event and leave. At the end he's the last one to want to leave. SMUDGE wears glasses which hides his good looks and sex appeal.

Sparky (Baritone): The clown-the imp-the scamp. The "cut-up" of the group. He is always looking for ways to crack jokes. He is very sharp and loves singing his tailor-made solos. He wears a retainer and has a slight speech impediment or lisp.
