Characters
Axel
He has attitude because he is a rockstar who is happens to be a spectacular tiger and supremely confident. A natural showman and the ultimate performer with onstage charisma that he can switch on at a moment’s notice.
Jazz
She has the edginess of a modern girl who has an opinion. She is confident and inevitably insecure. The attitude Jazz puts out is inspiring but deep down she is emotional on the inside and a bit messed up.
Brendan
He is an intellectual and spiritual character who is a bit of a hippie and is a little bit on his own planet. Musically, he’s a brilliant guitarist and a good song writer.
Mackenzie
Mackenzie is sweet and has a heartfelt simplicity of cutting through modern life. She is also a bit of a tomboy and has a childlike view of the world and says what she thinks- sometimes it’s right and sometimes it’s not.
He is fearless, unpredictable and has a real temper. He is like the buffalo in the Serengeti. Drummers are sometimes crazy and so is Rafael. He’s got a listening problem and is a bit mental.
Rafael
Martin
He is a very modern DJ producer who is more tuned in the younger music industry of today. He has a turntable and headphones; he’s his own character.
Emily
The octopus is a female assistant who is very organized and does a 1000 thing at once, she really cares for the band who are very needy.
Generic Bird
The little birds are the groupies/fans and they only make “Meep” sounds.
