Aaron: (Lead) Male, late 20s-late 30s; tenor; Jewish investment banker; he has never been on a blind date before; out of his element, nervous, and trying way too hard; charming and a little awkward. All Ethnicities
Casey: (Lead) Female, late 20s-late 30s; great belt/mix voice; daring, bold, and delightfully controversial--all of which is a defense mechanism; she works in an art gallery to stay connected but is too scared to launch her own photography career. Comedic Timing. Great belt/mix. All Ethnicities
Man #1: (Supporting) Male, 20-35; Waiter / Gabe / Edgy British Guy / YouTube / Rap Back-up / Jewish Chorus; strong character actor. Gabe is the mega dude/womanizer, masculine man’s man, has every answer to every question about women that has ever been asked. And probably has a catch phrase to go with that answer. Aaron's best friend since childhood. Edgy Rocker/British Guy are bad boys from Casey's past. Cocky and neglectful, they are overcompensating; Baritenor range. All Ethnicities
Woman #1: (Supporting) Female late 20s-40s. Waitress / Grandma Ida / Lauren / Facebook / Female with Megaphone 2 / Aarons Mother; belt/mix with soprano; strong comedic actress with a great voice, warmth, and personality. The waiters play a variety of characters from Aaron and Casey's lives. Needs to show wide age range, and character voices. Casey's sister. Lauren is happily (somewhat) married to her highly successful husband, Kevin, and wonders out loud why Casey can't break her bad habits and learn how to catch a winner. Constantly trying to fix Casey, Lauren is more concerned with listening to her own advice than actually helping her sister. Grandma Ida is Aaron's dead grandmother (Yiddish dialect) who feels strongly that her son should marry a Jewish woman. Aaron's Mother has a sweet tender duet about past mistakes and the love of her son. All Ethnicities.
Man #2: (Supporting) Male late 20s-40s. Waiter / Reggie / Aarons Future Son / Instagram / Rocker Guy; tenor; strong comedic skills and some sex appeal. The waiters play a variety of characters from Aaron and Casey's lives. Reggie: Casey's fabulously fierce gay and over-imaginative best friend. Easily sent into a tailspin of jealousy, paranoia, and drama. Edgy Rocker/British Guy are bad boys from Casey's past. Cocky and neglectful, they are overcompensating. All Ethnicities.
Woman #2: (Supporting) Female late 20s-40s. Waitress / Jewish Chorus / Allison / Google Girl / Female with Megaphone 1; great belt with soprano; strong comedic actress with a great voice, warmth, and personality. The waiters play a variety of characters from Aaron and Casey's lives. Allison: Aaron's ex-fiancé; gorgeous, sexy, uptight, conservative, controlling, manipulative. All Ethnicities.
Man #3: (Supporting) Male, 30s-40s; Head Waiter / Casey's Christian Father / Twitter / Friendly Therapist; baritone; strong comedic skills and a great voice. The waiters play a variety of characters from Aaron and Casey's lives. Head Waiter: a career waiter, who dabbles with songwriting and performing on the side, a romantic, great 11 o’clock number. He wants nothing more than for love to blossom in his restaurant. A Closet poet. Casey's Christian Father: a stereotype super-Christian, praising the Easter Bunny and denouncing Judaism. All Ethnicities.
