Casting

Soprano: The "Seeker"
Female - 18-30
Preferably African-American. Alluring. Soulfully searching for a spiritual path through the decade. Pop second soprano with tons of soul.

Alto: The “Feminist”
Female - 18-30
Radiating a new-found pride, rock-chick power, seductiveness, and vulnerability. Great pop-rock sound.

Tenor: The “Lovable Loser”
Male - 18-30
Preferably African-American. A happy soul. Shy. Perhaps a bit geeky. The lovable loser who never gives up. The real pop thing with monster top soaring range.

Baritone: The “Lover”
Male - 18-30
Confident, alpha-male rock singer with an intensity of purpose. Pop-rock baritone/second tenor.
