SEEKING
- Karen – character portrayed is female, early-mid-30s, any ethnicity. A triplethreat who’s understudied IVY for four shows. She knows Ivy, she’s thought of as an “Ivy Type”, and she’s earned her living for a dozen years, watching her in rehearsal and preparing to go on for her. In Bombshell, she finally thinks she’s going to get her chance. Married to Charlie. A STRONG DANCER AS THIS ROLE IS PART OF ALL OF THE “BOMBSHELL” PRODUCTION NUMBERS, AND HAS STRONG COMEDIC SKILLS. ABLE TO BELT THE SONG “DON’T FORGET ME”
- Anita – character portrayed is female, 50s-60s. Former Fosse dancer turned powerhouse Broadway producer. Confident and smart. A long and colorful history with Broadway in general and with Nigel in specific.
