Finn Doyle

FINN DOYLE — Cabin Boy, The Scarlet Tempest

Age range: Teen (character is 16)

Voice type: Bright, youthful energy — expressive, not yet weathered by the sea

Character: The youngest member of the crew, Finn dreams of becoming a legendary pirate. Inexperienced but endlessly enthusiastic — his courage and energy often surprise the older sailors around him. Provides much of the crew's comic relief and wide-eyed wonder.

Voice direction: Should read as genuinely young — quick energy shifts (excitement to offense to fear and back), a bit dramatic, easily impressed. Comedic timing matters here, but so does sincerity in his smaller vulnerable moments.

Audition Lines:

1. (Dramatic complaint, comedic)

"I nearly died, Lila." — (beat) — "Two days is a long time. It is if you're me."

2. (Wide-eyed wonder)

"This place is amazing." — (beat, whispering, awed) — "Wait — that's Captain Bloodwake?"

3. (Genuine fear, underneath the bravado)

"Is that his ship?!" — (beat, scared, quieter) — "It's bigger than ours."
