GUTENBERG! THE MUSICAL
DOUG SIMON (late 30s-mid 40s, any ethnicity) THIS ROLE IS CAST. Doug is a naïve, utterly sincere and earnest man who never met a cause he wasn’t passionate about. He’s a jack of all trades, master of none, who compensates with an infectious, matter-of-fact energy and focus that would probably sound condescending if he weren’t so likable. He’s incredibly proud of the show he wrote with Bud, and thinks Bud, whom he adores, is a genius. But he's the Idea man, the one with vision.
BUD DAVENPORT (late 30s-mid 40s, any ethnicity) THIS ROLE IS CAST. Bud is eager to please and thrives on approval. When Bud sings one of his songs, he’s very proud of himself, but he’s too naïve to be a true egomaniac. If anything, he’s excessively grateful for the mere opportunity to create and perform. Bud enjoys getting caught up in Doug’s passion, admires his friend’s Big Ideas, and wants to set them all to music.
