Casting
Robert Grisetti
Male - 17
Overweight. Charismatic, charming, and hilarious with an amazing voice. Robert's insecurities are skillfully hidden beneath the mask of rock 'n roll-inspired teenage rebellion. Sent to camp against his will and desperate to break out. Requires an actor who possesses both excellent comedic chops and emotional depth. Drumming skills a plus. High rock tenor.
Taylor
Female - 16
Overweight. Dedicated, outgoing, smart, optimistic. A Midwestern girl who has spent the past year working at Starbucks to save money to enroll in camp and lose weight. Longs to be "normal." High belter.
Daphne
Female - 17
Overweight. Fierce, sassy, sexy, funny. She's been to camp for the past three summers and is more concerned with hooking up than exercise. A rich girl who loves a good time, a cigarette, and a Cinnabon. Must be comically gifted. Belter.
Anshel
Male
Overweight. That weirdo kid whose interjections are often met with confused silence. An oddball fanboy. Homeschooled and lovable. Must be a uniquely gifted comic actor. High tenor.
Darnell
Male - 17
African American. Overweight. A YouTube celebrity who only ever shows his face online, Darnell enrolls in camp in order to qualify for gastric bypass. Blunt and easily annoyed, he is secretly a vulnerable teddy bear looking for love. Must be extremely funny and comfortable with taking off his shirt onstage. Baritenor.
Brent
Male - 17
Attractive, ripped, All-American. Brent is a former fat kid turned junior counselor, having completely remade himself over the course of a few summers. Hates Robert Grisetti and everything he stands for. A hilariously dumb villain. Seeking an extremely physical comedic actor who can rap well. Baritone.
Britta
Female - 16
Overweight. An unfortunate looking girl with a retainer lisp and acne who longs to be evil like all her favorite Disney witches. Blissfully unaware of how bizarre she truly is, Britta loves chaos (and her brother Brent.) Must be a uniquely gifted comic actor. Character singer.
Sandy
Female - 30s - 50s
Co-owner of Camp Overton and teen weight loss expert. Professional, but extremely quirky comic actress. Character belter.
Mike
Male - 30s - 50s
Co-owner of Camp Overton and teen weight loss expert. Professional with lots of underlying quirk. Could either be either the masculine outdoorsy type, or a quirky character man. Character baritone.
Ashley Penrod
Female - 17
Beautiful, athletic, perfect. Ashley is the captain of the Pennsylvania All-State Cheerleading squad. The holy grail. Seeking a funny actress with cheerleading/acrobatic experience. Strong pop belter.
Tank
Male
Camper at Overton.
Aspen
Female
Cheerleader.
Lydia
Female
Goth camper at Overton.
Vanessa
Female
Camper at Overton.
Marlie
Female
Cheerleader.
