Godspell | Character Breakdowns
Judas
He is both Jesus' lieutenant and most ardent disciple and the doubter who begins to question and rebel. Like Jesus, he is also charismatic, but in more of an overt revolutionary way. He is the most "serious" and intellectual of the group.
Range: C3 to E4
Anne Marie
A bit of a tomboy, but basically open and sweet. Perhaps the youngest of the group. She is the first of the group to commit to following Jesus in the song "Day by Day."
Female
Range: G#3 to C#5
Nick
Very high energy. Impish and playful. Thrives when the spotlight is on him.
Male
Range: B2 to D5
Telly
Not the brightest in the bunch, he is a little slow on the uptake. But there is a great sweetness and innocence about him.
Male
Range: G2 to C4
George
The comedian, and a sometimes annoying class clown. The guy who can do a hundred voices and imitations.
Male
Range: G3 to E5
Lindsay
The confident one, the show-off. The first one to volunteer, sometimes she jumps in before she really understands what's going on.
Female
Range: G#3 to C#6
Uzo
The shy one. Sometimes a little slow to get things, but when she does, she commits all the way. Has an "earth mother" kind of warmth to her.
Female
Range: A3 to B4
Morgan
Sassy and slightly cynical. Also the "sexy" one, but her sexiness contains a large element of put-on, in the manner of Mae West or Madonna.
Female
Range: E3 to F5
Celisse
The typical warm class clown. Goofy and a cut-up. She is musical at heart, the type of person who can pick up an instrument and simply play!
Female
Range: A3 to A5
Cordy
Always here for a laugh and a good time. She is Fun, silly and full of heart. She fits in well with everyone in the group.
Female
Range: E3 to F5
Ella
The clear Bookworm of the group, confident but quiet, shy but when she speaks, others listen to her strong intellect.
Female
Range: A3 to A5
