3 All roles may be played by either male or female performers. For this reason, each character is named for a prominent personality trait. Some of the names may seem a bit unique, but since none of the characters are actually referred to by name, there was no real reason to give them some arbitrary, place-holder name. Roles are listed in order from most lines to fewest. 9 21 35 51 61 65 66 71 79 94 1. It Was Good..............(CHORUS, optional soloists, Oboe or C instrument)........................... 2.

CATALYST – a natural, inspirational leader, with just a hint of bossiness. Ideally played by an older child or youth. ENVIRONMENTALIST – passionate about nature and very conscious of how our actions affect the environment. ARTSY – believes glitter glue makes everything better. The character most likely to own a kitten poster. Often overexcited. LITERALIST – represents the mind of the young child – a concrete thinker, who takes things literally. Asks a lot of questions. CRAFTSY – see ARTSY. The two feed off of one another's energy. MUCK 1 – fascinated by the unusual and even the gross. If it's a creature the rest of the world views as disgusting, MUCK 1 sees the beauty in it. Has a duet with MUCK 2 in All Things. CGC63 Contents The Cast of Characters For Preview Only
