SEEKING:

Horton: 30-50 years old. Any ethnicity. Gentle and appealing. Think of him as a big-hearted blue-collar guy who is steadfast and responsible and always tries to do the right thing for his friends. He is imaginative and receptive to the world around him. He is very un-self-conscious. Horton's view of the world never changes--he believes in its goodness. But by the end of the show, without even realizing it, he is ready to become a parent. Vocal range top: F4 Vocal range bottom: A2.

Gertrude McFuzz: 25-45 years old. Any ethnicity. Very self-conscious and aware that her one-feather tail isn't perfect. Gertrude changes during the show from a vain, neurotic, nervous and shy bird into one with the power to protect and care for a baby elephant bird and commit herself to Horton. In other words, she stops worrying about her looks and grows up doing what she wants. Vocal range top: F5. Vocal range bottom: F3

Mayzie LaBird: 25-45 years old. Any ethnicity or gender. Self-centered, selfish and vain, Mayzie will never admit to her own flaws. She manipulates anyone she can (especially Horton) into doing what she wants. But Mayzie isn't all bad. In giving up her egg to Horton once and for all, she has a moment of generosity--she realizes she isn't the kind of person who'd be a good parent, and she does the best thing she can do for the egg. Vocal range top: Eb5. Vocal range bottom: G3

Sour Kangaroo: 25-45 years old. Person of Color. She isn't really sour at all. She's just got a lot of attitude. She's loud, brassy and a lot of fun. Vocal range top: F5. Vocal range bottom: F#3

The Wickersham Brothers: 25-39 years old. Any ethnicity. These are not bad guys! They're simply a lot like kids who tease, play pranks and get a kick out of making mischief, although often at others' expense. They enjoy hanging around with one another, making music together on the street corner, and playing off one another. Strong singer/dancers.

The Bird Girls: 25-39 years old. Any ethnicity. They are like the popular girls in any school--a clique of pretty, self-centered "back up birds" who do whatever Mayzie does. Strong singer/dancers.

Ensemble: 25-45 years old. Circus Performers, Jungle Citizens, Etc. Strong singer/dancers.
