Zee for Alex McKessie
Alex McKessie is Darwin’s brilliant but socially awkward little sister, a scientific influencer who spends more time tinkering in her lab than hanging with people. Equal parts robotics mastermind and mad scientist, Alex is just as unhinged as her brother—if not more—especially when her inventions inevitably go haywire.
Age: 10

[Revving up her newest invention] At last… the calculations are perfect, the power stable, the world at my fingertips! Heh…heh-heh… HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! …Now, FIRE!
[Presenting her experiment] Ok, class. Prepare to be ASTOUNDED! Made directly from my lab, I present (pulls sheet off cage) … Oh... It got out... Welp! (Claps hands, cheerfully nervous) You MIIIGHT wanna cover your orifices—y’know, eyes, ears, mouths—PRONTO!
[On the phone with a friend, fighting for her life against her own experiment] Oh—ack!—hello? Oh hiii!...Hang out? Oh, I’d love to, really, but I’m just a TEENSY bit—grrhh!—tied up at the moment! Ya know, just taking care of one of my experiments—back, BACK!—(awkward laugh) call ya back!
Hi Zee! It was a joy hearing your audition!
Overall, great read-through from start to finish! There were a few moments where a bit more punch would really elevate it. The laugh and “Now FIRE!” moment could use more energy, whereas the third line could use a stronger sense of urgency—like it’s life or death, but she’s masking it with forced cheerfulness for the sake of her friend.
Thanks so much for auditioning—you’ve got a fun foundation for her voice, and we really appreciate you giving Alex a shot!
I could give it another go if you'd like. I can definitely bring that energy.
