Here is the breakdown:
________________________________________________________________
The Theatrical Assembly of Self-Realized Animals
Presents
Our Farm
Character Breakdown:
Snowball – (F, 40-65, pig) – the founder of TASRA, she directs and stars in Our Farm, sensible, experienced, very passionate, wordy, intellectual, a little proud and self-righteous, but only cause she’s got the most at stake in this production and the most to say, she truly believes that animals have been wronged by the human world and that TASRA is the way to liberate them, she loves and believes in the power of theatre.
Gordy/Snowball II – (M, 20-30, pig) – TASRA’s strongest and biggest name actor, the pig who played Babe in the movie by the same name, cast by Snowball to play herself, over-the-top, self-involved, confident, very “L.A.”, but not insincere, until the real Napoleon shows up and he is pulled from his role, then we see the jittery, but lively, quick-thinking, heroic actor underneath.
Cowboy/Boxer – (M, 25-40, horse) – honest, sincere, a little stupid or maybe just oblivious, but he works harder and tries harder than anyone else in the company, he’s never been in a play before but feels truly honored to be given this opportunity, he has a calming energy, loyal, generous, and is all around lovable.
Benjamin – (M, 50-70, donkey) – stoic, thoughtful, tired, and quiet, he’s not an actor, he probably didn’t want to be in this play, but he’ll do what is asked of him without complaining, he’s caring and good natured, wise, experienced and knowledgeable, a little bit of an old hand.
Dixie/Clover – (F, 25-40, horse) – a show-horse, grew up in a theatrical family, very method, takes her role very seriously but she’s not a diva, you can see her effort more than her talent, smart but panicky, devoted, kindhearted, the closest thing to a leading lady that can be found in TASRA.
Candice/Bluebell – (F, 20-30, sheepdog) - excited, energetic, eager, willing, easily thrilled and easily scared, loving, warm, tender, motherly, innocent maybe even naive, emotional, dedicated, easily trusts the others.
Napoleon’s Dog Band – (3 M/F, 20-40, dogs) – Napoleon’s entourage and body-guards, also a jazz ensemble, vicious, militant, trained by Napoleon to play some swingin’ tunes and kill farm animals. Bring musical instrument and 1 minute’s worth of showin’-off music.
