ANNA AND THE APOCALYPSE (SINGERS, ACTORS, & RAPPERS NEEDED FOR ZOMBIE MUSICAL)
LARussell for ANNA SHEPHERD
Mezzo-Sop / Soprano
Anna is a 17 year old senior, with dreams of traveling Australia after she graduates. Her single parent father is loving, and she loves him, but his overbearing nature makes Anna push away in a time when she wants to become her own person. She is smart, headstrong, and brave, but not cruel. There is a gentleness and honesty to her that makes her effortlessly likable. She's not afraid to say what she thinks, and is kind to people around her. Anna is very levelheaded and collected, and is not prone to outbursts unless provoked.
Please note that while English or Scottish are the desired accents, ANY UK accent will be acceptable.
Sing something musical theatre style. Anna's voice is a typical musical theatre lead, pretty, effortless, and pure.
I’m going on a trip all right? That’s all it is. Dad, I- Can we talk about this later? I- (exploding) Im not going to Uni! (softening) I’m not going. I- I don’t mean ever. I just want to travel before I do, take a gap year. It’s Australia first, an open ticket- Just me. On my own. I need to break away.
Jesus, Nick? Is that what you think this is? I'm not angry about the sex. It's never been about the sex. I'm angry because we talked about our future, and you acted like it meant something. And then you dumped me. We're a lot of things, Nick, but we've never been a team.
