Breakdown

SOON

SYNOPSIS: SOON is an indie-pop chamber musical written, composed, and lyricized by Nick Blaemire. The story follows a young woman navigating emotional isolation during an impending global apocalypse.

Note from the director: “Because the staging is so intimate, we’re looking for grounded, natural performances. The songs live in the same intimacy and style of the play - with the exception of Adrienne who is “performing” for the room.”

SEEKING:

CHARLIE - as charismatic as she is conflicted, she battles between her lack of faith in herself with her dreams of life outside her apartment. Unique alto-mezzo with folk and strong groove instincts, belts to a Db.

JONAH - Charlie's boyfriend, funny, mischievous and confident but misses cues due to his privilege. He's pushed out of his comfort zone when he realizes he's falling in love with a woman who is self-sabotaging her life. Baritenor with pop and groove instincts and a great falsetto, sings to a G.

STEVEN - Charlie’s roommate he feels responsible for her but doesn’t know how to take care of her. A lover of pop culture and reality TV, and himself. Sees a way out when he meets Jonah. Baritone with pop and groove instincts, sings to an F.

ADRIENNE - Charlie’s mother, who acts more like her sister. She is just as charismatic and conflicted as her daughter, only she's been at it longer, so she is more deeply caught in her delusions. Jazzy alto with great style and improvisational ability, belts to a C.
