“The Rocking 60’s Musical Soap Opera Story”. Delightful story of Cindy and her guardian angels who teach her about finding true love in, of all places, a laundromat. Including over 50 favorite songs from the ’60s like “Where the Boys Are”, “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’”, “Respect”, “I Feel Good” and “Do You Want to Know a Secret.”

Cindy:

20s-30s. Recently jilted laundromat worker. Strong alto and sweet-sounding mix. Low F. Belt to Bb. Easy mix to D.

Her Act I finale solo (“I Don't Wanna Be A Loser”) goes from a sweet wistful soft ballad to a big belt finish.

Marge:

20s-30s. Should have a strong, controlled pop/rock belt, tough R&B “wail”, plus nice mix for backup. Solos include: "You Don't Have To Say You Love Me" (Dusty Springfield, belt to C#{, "Respect" (Aretha Franklin, R&B to F), "Our Day Will Come" (nice mix to C).
