Head Over Heels is the bold new musical comedy from the visionaries that rocked Broadway with Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Avenue Q and Spring Awakening. This laugh-out-loud story is set to the music of the iconic 1980's all-female rock band The Go-Go's, including the hit songs, "We Got the Beat," "Our Lips Are Sealed," "Vacation," Belinda Carlisle's "Heaven is a Place on Earth" and "Mad About You."

A hilarious, exuberant celebration of love, Head Over Heels follows the escapades of a royal family on an outrageous journey to save their beloved kingdom from extinction -- only to discover the key to their realm's survival lies within each of their own hearts.

Characters

  • Casting: 3M, 5F
  • Casting Attributes: Ensemble cast

  • BASILIUS - King of Arcadia. A sexy, good ol' boy. A hothead, but not a despot. Blindly thinks Arcadia is doing great under his masculine rule, which will be sorely tested during the course of the show.

  • GYNECIA - Queen of Arcadia. Sexy, wise, beautiful. Like any longstanding spouse, knows how to get her way with her husband when push comes to shove.

  • PAMELA - Basilius and Gynecia's older daughter. Confident and obsessed with her appearance regardless of what others think.

  • PHILOCLEA - Basilius and Gynecia's younger daughter. Shy and a "good girl," she yearns to follow her heart rather than obey her father's order.

  • DAMETAS - The King's viceroy; father to Mopsa.

  • MOPSA - Handmaiden to Pamela. Warm, skeptical. Growing up without a mother has made her wise beyond her years about everyone and everything, which is why she is the (sometime) narrator to the show.

  • MUSIDORUS - A young shepherd ho courts after Philoclea.

  • PYTHIO - The Oracle; powerful, mysterious. Demanding. Great sense of humor -- can see through everyone -- they are the Oracle of Delphi, after all. Performer isn't limited to gender identity and ethnicity.

  • ENSEMBLE - Unique, charismatic individuals to inhabit the kingdom of Arcadia.
