Character Breakdown
ASH (Male Tenor/Baritone):
The hero and iconic character of the musical, devoted S-Mart housewares employee evolves over the course of the show from a cowardly college student to a wise cracking deadite slayer with his detachable hand chainsaw and 12 gauge "boomstick”. College student; G3-B5 vocals.
CHERYL (Female Mezzo-Soprano):
Ash’s sister and the odd woman out in the group. Looking to spend a week relaxing, she is the recipient of Scotty’s jokes and torment. The only one to sense the evil surrounding the cabin, she is the first to be possessed, turning her into an aggressive, foul-mouthed demon that speaks in very bad puns. Spends the majority of the show locked in the cellar. College student; G3-D5 vocals, strong belt required.
ANNIE (Female Mezzo-Soprano):
Quite the overbearing explorer who finds missing pages to the Necronomicon and wants to reunite with her father to continue their research. Very bossy and drawn to Ash. Must be comfortable in a tear away semi-revealing costume. 20’s-30’s; A3-D5 vocals.
SHELLY (Female Mezzo-Soprano):
The random girl who Scott picked up drunk at a bar three days ago. Beautiful, easy, and not too smart. She is Scotty’s latest fling and looking to party. Just because she becomes an evil demon doesn’t mean she can’t look good doing it! Mid-20’s;
LINDA (Female Mezzo-Soprano):
The girl next door. Linda is sweet, thoughtful, and completely devoted to Ash, until she turns evil and tries to kill him. She laughs an annoyingly inordinate amount of time after transforming.College student; B3-E5 vocals.
SCOTT (Male Tenor/Baritone):
Good looking, cocky, a prankster and Ash’s best friend. Thinks himself the brave one until he’s forced to kill, then his panic leads him to flee. He returns to warn Ash about the woods and attempts to help his friend even as he is knocking on death’s door. College student; D4-B5 vocals.
ED (Male Tenor/Baritone):
Annie’s coworker, boyfriend, and doormat. He travels with her to the cabin to proceed with their research of the book of the dead. After turning evil, his confidence may lack but this “Bit Part Demon” is ready to sing! (May DOUBLE MOOSE, a possessed moose head on the wall of the cabin. 20’s-30’s; A3-F5 vocals.
JAKE (Male Tenor/Baritone):
Stereotypical Southerner and reliable enough to help Annie and Ed find the path to the cabin, but too stupid and stubborn to listen to reason that will keep him alive. Good, old, and reliable. Seems to know far too much about the musical. Spends his time wandering the woods around the cabin. Mid-30s; G3-A5 vocals.
FAKE SHEMP (Male):
This role is basically all of the small roles in the show: Knowby, Airport Announcer, the Severed Hand, Linda’s Headless Body, the Evil Force, etc.
