(Looking for singers to bring to life) Toradora: The Musical
imsobbing for Ami Kawashima
Ami is a secondary lead in the piece, Yusaku’s old friend, alpha bitch. Ami pretends early on to be kind and sweet, when in reality she really is just a cynical alpha bitch. She learns to accept this about herself but still harshly criticizes others.
Vocally I'm looking for a sweet soprano voice with strong highs in the F#5-G5 area, and vocal agility you'd find in a Disney princess. Really lay on the irony of the sweet sounding cynic. Has some lows down to A3 but doesn't stay there too long.
Will have solo parts in 8 songs
(Coldly)
"What a drag, hey, wanna make yourself useful and get me some more iced tea (TAIGA ignores and flips through the magazine) Wow, looks like someone’s got a bit of an attitude- I’ll just get your boyfriend to do it! With how he’s acting now I’m sure he’ll do anything I ask. You don’t mind if I steal him do you? Not that I even want him, with that scary face."
(Angry)
"You!! You’re the reason I had to change schools! It’s because of you I binge on snacks all the time now! I’ve been letting you beat me all this time, well no more! No more! No more cutesy crap or whatever. You’re gonna leave me the fuck alone!"
Sing a snippet of a jazz song for a soprano: (Ex. Summertime, My Favorite Things, If I Were A Bell, 'Til There Was You, etc)
