Fritz

Fritz is energetic, adventurous, and always looking for something to do. He's easily bored when he's expected to sit still for too long and would much rather be exploring the arcade, watching the animatronics, or convincing someone else to come along with whatever idea he's just had.

He's confident and impulsive, often acting before he's completely thought something through. Fritz enjoys testing boundaries and has a habit of treating rules more like suggestions, but he's usually looking for fun rather than deliberately trying to cause trouble.

Despite his confidence, Fritz isn't fearless. When something genuinely frightens him, his first instinct is often to joke about it or pretend it didn't bother him.

We're looking for a believable child performance with plenty of energy and personality. Fritz should be able to handle excitement, humour, mischief, frustration, fear, and more serious emotional moments without sounding overly cartoonish.

This is a recurring role with appearances throughout the project.

Line 1 — Excited / energetic: Fritz has just had an idea and immediately wants the other person to come with him. In his mind, there is absolutely no reason to stand around discussing it first.

Line 2 — Mischievous / persuasive: Fritz wants to go somewhere they're not supposed to. He knows the other person thinks it's a bad idea, so he's attempting to make it sound completely harmless.

Line 3 — Shaken / pretending he's fine: Something genuinely frightened Fritz. He's trying to laugh it off and act like it was nothing, but his voice betrays him.
