MICHAEL – character portrayed is male, to play 17-18. The oldest of the Emerson boys. As archetypes go, he’s our brooding teen. Conflicted. Bit of a loner. Has become the protector of the family against his alcoholic father’s abusive behavior. He carries a lot of pain inside and has grown up quicker than he should’ve. But he doesn’t ask for sympathy. Deep down, he longs to be a part of a tribe where he belongs and finds connection. He’ll find it in Star and David, but it will come, unsuspectingly, at a price. Rock tenor.
STAR – character portrayed is female, to play 17-18. A teenager with a troubled past. She holds a lot of pain but is fiercely protective of showing herself. She has a biting sense of humor and sees Michael at first as a little lamb lost in the woods. She has sought refuge in David but feels regret about the state of her situation. She finds connection in an unlikely partner in Michael. They bond in their trauma. High rock belt.
EDGAR FROG – character portrayed is male, 18+ to play 14-15. Santa Carla local. Militant in devotion and dress. He and his brother Alan have seen one too many Chuck Norris movies. They hang at the local comic bookstore and have both poured themselves into fighting the main threat to Santa Carla: vampires. Since no one believes them, they have to find the perfect recruits to enlist in their “army.” They find it in a reluctant Sam. Rock tenor voice.
ALAN FROG – character portrayed is 18+ to play 14-15, can be played by any gender. Alan is an intense, combat-obsessed fourteen-year-old, who - alongside their brother Edgar - has made their life mission ridding the world of bloodsucking vampires. They dress in army clothes and emulate their role model; Rambo. Rock alto voice.
LUCY – THERE IS AN OFFER OUT ON THIS ROLE. character portrayed is female, early 40s. The matriarch of the Emerson family. A former hippie whose faith in people and goodness has gotten her into trouble in the past (read: her ex-husband). She carries a lot of guilt for the pain she’s put her kids through. Messy, kind-hearted and resilient, she’s determined to start anew and protect her family. She and Michael have their own underlying tensions as he blames her for staying too long in her marriage. He feels she didn’t protect him. Lucy finds possible male companionship in Santa Carla and starts to be seduced by the sexiest notion of all: stability. High rock belt.
SAM – THERE IS AN OFFER OUT ON THIS ROLE. character is male, 13. Michael’s younger teen brother. Back in Arizona, he developed a keen wit that acts as an effective defensive tool against bullies, both at school and at home. He’s outgoing as opposed to Michael’s introverted personality. Pours himself into comic books as an escape. He’s a mall rat who experiences culture shock after moving to the off-beat Santa Carla. Despite his sense of humor, Sam is sensitive and waiting to break free. He is about to learn what he’s truly made of in this strange California beach town. High rock tenor, good falsetto.
DAVID – THERE IS AN OFFER OUT ON THIS ROLE. character portrayed is male, 20s. Intense, dangerous, and charismatic leader of the Lost Boys. He can disarm with a smile. An old soul in many ways, he sees in Michael a possible partner for whom he has waited a long time. He offers safety and security to all he enlists to be a part of his family. He offers a security to Michael that Michael never had from his own father. To Star, he offers love but it comes at a price. Rock bari-tenor.
MAX – THERE IS AN OFFER OUT ON THIS ROLE. character portrayed is male, mid-forties to 50. The owner and founder of Videomax video stores. Lucy’s boss. He hires her on the spot after being charmed by her. They have an attraction despite their differences and backgrounds. He is the embodiment of 80s Reagan can-do conservatism and optimistic capitalism. He’s kind and charming and seems to be the answer to Lucy’s problems. A single father himself, with his own grown boys, he offers Lucy stability and, in his opinion, what every young man needs: a stable father figure. We will come to find he’s got ulterior motives and is the head vampire to the Lost Boys. Strong singer.
MARKO – THERE IS AN OFFER OUT ON THIS ROLE. character portrayed is male, 20s. Perhaps he’s the most loyal to David and considers himself to be the “favorite.” He’s not. He loves this family of his. Playful. Preferably can play an instrument in a rock band. Role requires comedy chops as well as being intimidating. Strong rock voice.
PAUL – THERE IS AN OFFER OUT ON THIS ROLE. character portrayed is male, 20s. Marko’s best friend. Earnest. A great sense of humor. Thinks he’s David’s favorite as well. Ready to defend his brothers at any cost. Preferably can play an instrument in a rock band. Role requires comedy chops as well as being intimidating. Strong rock voice.
DWAYNE – THERE IS AN OFFER OUT ON THIS ROLE. character portrayed is male, 20s. The live wire of the group. Quieter but loyal and violent. Preferably can play an instrument in a rock band. Possesses comedy chops as well as being intimidating. Strong rock voice.
