Track 1:
Billy (Dancin’ in the Street) / The Showman (Showstoppers)
Casting Note:
Billy is the unofficial mayor of the block. He believes in music, community, and the idea that if you keep the groove going, everything will work itself out. He narrates the story not as an outsider, but as someone deeply invested in every life on the street. Billy’s confidence comes easily—but it’s also a shield. He avoids overthinking by trusting the rhythm of things.
Billy begins the show convinced that joy is something you protect by keeping things light. Over the course of the story, he learns that joy doesn’t disappear when life changes—it deepens. When he and Christie discover they’re expecting a child, Billy steps into a more grounded leadership, understanding that the street isn’t just a party—it’s a family he’s responsible for nurturing.
Track 2 :
Christie (Dancin’ in the Street) / The Spark (Showstoppers!)
Casting Note:
Christie is energy incarnate. She organizes, motivates, decorates, and dances because motion keeps fear at bay. She loves Billy deeply, but she fears that adulthood—especially motherhood—means the end of spontaneity, sensuality, and joy. Where Billy trusts the music, Christie needs to control it.
Christie begins anxious that pregnancy signals the end of her identity. Through the block party and her emotional Act I finale, she confronts the fear that this might be her “last dance.” By the end, she realizes that joy isn’t something she’s losing—it’s something she’s carrying forward. Motherhood doesn’t replace who she is; it expands it.
Track 3:
Eddie (Dancin’ in the Street) / The Principal (Showstoppers!)
Casting Note:
Eddie loves Brenda with his whole heart, but he’s not flashy about it. His devotion is expressed through preparation, patience, and long-term thinking. His secrecy—meant to protect a surprise—unintentionally fuels the very fear he’s trying to avoid.
Eddie begins misunderstood and emotionally isolated, unable to explain himself without spoiling the moment. As Brenda pulls away, he’s forced to fight for her in the open, using music and vulnerability instead of plans. By the end, Eddie learns that love requires transparency as much as intention.
Track 4:
Brenda (Dancin’ in the Street) / The Star (Showstoppers!)
Casting Note:
Brenda is strong, proud, and deeply loyal. She has built a life with Eddie over years of shared history and shared struggle. But strength has made her guarded. When Eddie’s behavior changes, Brenda’s fear of being taken for granted turns into suspicion. She would rather assume betrayal than risk being blindsided by disappointment.
Brenda begins the show bracing for heartbreak. Her jealousy isn’t insecurity—it’s self-preservation. Over the course of the story, she is forced to confront how fear can distort love. Eddie’s vow renewal reveals that she hasn’t been forgotten or replaced—she’s been cherished all along. Brenda ends the show choosing trust again, but this time with clarity, not naivety.
Track 5: Jack
(Dancin’ in the Street) / The Romantic (Showstoppers!)
Casting Note:
Jack is thoughtful, gentle, and deeply sincere. He feels things before he says them and writes songs instead of speeches. He has loved Diane quietly for years, believing patience is respect. But patience has also become a hiding place.
Jack begins afraid that wanting more will ruin what he already has. Over the course of the story, he learns that love requires risk. His journey is a slow burn—from silent longing to emotional courage. By the time Diane proposes, Jack has already done the hardest thing: he made himself emotionally visible.
Track 6:
Diane (Dancin’ in the Street) / The Heart (Showstoppers!)
Casting Note:
Diane is independent, intelligent, and emotionally observant. She believes in love—but on her own terms. She keeps Jack at arm’s length not because she doesn’t feel it, but because she’s afraid of losing stability, friendship, and self-definition.
Diane starts the show controlling her emotions through logic. As the story unfolds, she allows herself to feel uncertainty without shutting down. Her solo moments are private reckonings, not declarations. In the end, she flips the expected narrative by proposing to Jack—not as a grand romantic gesture, but as a conscious, grounded choice.
