Please note that the gender descriptions apply to the characters, not the actors:
Seymour (Lead) – Male-identifying. 25-40
Shy, a bit clumsy, unsure of himself but does right by his people. Meek. He started life as an orphan on Skid Row, but was taken in by his current boss Mr. Mushnik. Taking care of plants and learning about them are his joy. He is likable and well-meaning, but his naïveté often gets him into sticky situations. Strong actor and singer.
Vocal range top: G4 – Vocal range bottom: A2

Audrey (Lead)– Female-identifying. 25-40
Kind-hearted, a dreamer. She is stylish and genuine.. She has a warped sense of self worth from a painful past, but it does not define her. A life lived in Skid Row has not tarnished her ability to dream a way out of a desperate circumstance. Strong acting and singing; comedic timing skills a plus.
Vocal range: bit of belt Vocal range top: D5 – Vocal range bottom: G#3

Mr. Mushnik (Supporting) – Male-identifying. 45-65
A struggling flower shop owner with a bit of a chip on his shoulder. Nosy, father figure to Seymour. Brutally honest and hard on his employees. Profit-driven. Beneath his rough exterior is a man just trying to survive and who truly cares about Seymour and Audrey. Strong character actor with some singing.
Vocal range top: F4 – Vocal range bottom: G2

Orin Scrivello (Supporting) Male-identifying, 30-40
Audrey’s Dentist boyfriend. He is arrogant, self-satisfied and abusive. Charismatic and can light up a room with his toxic charm. Constantly asserting his masculinity and abusing power in attempts to hide his own vulnerability. His sickness lies in deriving pleasure in causing things pain and in abusing nitrous oxide. Strong character actor and singer who can also deliver a bit of a comic edge. Ability to play other minor roles such as Mr. Bernstein, Mrs. Luce, Skip Snip and more. **Please note other minor roles may be covered by another actor.
Vocal range top: G4 – Vocal range bottom: G2

The Plant (Audrey II) Any gender, 18+
Non-speaking puppeteers (experience not required) who manipulate various stages of the plant as it gets bigger. Strong physical acting skills and the ability to portray character and emotion purely through movement. Has stamina to operate the large, heavy final puppet. We’re planning to cast TWO actors and split the puppeting duties, with each puppeteer covering the other in case of absence.

Voice of the Plant (Audrey II) Any gender, any age
Actor/vocalist located offstage. Larger than life, their voice carries wondrous weight and presence. Foul-mouthed. Smooth, Sweet-talking and street smart. They ooze the rhythm and blues. The Plant is very persuasive and excels at getting what it wants. Strong character actor and singer. Has excellent funky R&B vocal chops.

Crystal, Ronnette, and Chiffon aka The Street Urchins (3 roles) Female-identifying , 18-30
Street-styled girl group with infectious energy and confidence. They are the light and soul of Skid Row who can sing well and know it. They are the no-nonsense driving force of the story; essentially a funky Greek chorus who comment on the action and have the strongest grip on reality. Strong harmony singers with excellent movement skills that can synchronize well within a group.
Vocal range top: F5 – Vocal range bottom: Ab3
