“Anna!”
Anna took a quick peek at her clock. 6:04 a.m. She moaned and stuck her head back under the pillow.
The call came again, louder this time. “ANNA!!!”
Anna sighed, jumped out of bed, pulled a sweatshirt on over her pajamas, and headed downstairs to complete chaos.
Elementgirl was sitting at the computer, ferociously typing something up. Katharine was chasing Connie around the kitchen for stealing some chocolate chips, and yelling to Lisbeth how to make a pancake. Lisbeth was failing miserably. Suddenly, they all stopped what they were doing and turned to look at Anna.
“Oh, it’s just you,” said Lisbeth, and went back to flipping her lopsided pancake. Katharine and Connie started running again, but EG walked over to Anna.
“Good, you’re here, lazybones!” she said. “Can you do me a favor?”
“What favor?” asked Anna, still rubbing sleep out of her eyes.
“Put these all over the place. Trees, telephone poles, stores, libraries…. Everywhere that some AE or another would look. And please finish before noon.”
Elementgirl nimbly pushed Anna out the door and handed her a stack of fluorescent green papers.
“Sorry about the color, it was all I could find. Now go!”
As soon as EG had disappeared back into the house, Anna unfolded one of the brightly colored papers and read what the flyer said in fancy script:
CALLING ALL AES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The auditions for the musical ‘Into the Woods’, produced by the CB City AE Theatre Co. and directed by EG Elementa, will be held on July 18, 2017, at the Pudding Theater .
Thanks for auditioning!
Anna smiled, pocketed the note, and hopped on her bike for what was sure to be a long ride.

Okay, this isn't quite what the title suggests. I just had an idea!!
You: Uh oh, elementgirl just had an idea.
Me: Say what you like, but this is IDEARIFFIC idea. Ideariffic? Ideatastic? Ideamazing? I really don't know XD. But anyway....
My idea was.... *drumroll*
What if our AEs put on a musical? I think something like this has been done before, but it was before my time on the CB. So, here's the order of procedure:
1: I choose a play/musical
2: You post your AEs' charrie sheets and who they will be auditioning for.
3: I write the auditions
4: I judge auditions/ choose parts
5: I write rehearsals and the performance!
This is the charrie sheet:

The musical is... drumroll again please.....
Into The Woods! It was The Sound Of Music last time, but that never really caught on. So I'm trying something with fewer roles. Here are the roles:
Narrator
Baker
Baker's Wife
Witch
Cinderella
Jack (from Jack and the Beanstalk)
Little Red Ridinghood
Cinderella's Prince
Jack's Mother
Cinderella's Stepmother
Florinda (stepsister)
Lucinda (stepsister)
Rapunzel
Rapunzel's Prince
Wolf
Red's granny
~
RULES:
1: This is ONLY FOR AES. No CBers allowed. Sorry, guys.
2: Your AE(s) may not get the part they want. I'm very sorry if this happens, but I can't give everyone the same role. If there were only one lead doing the whole play, it wouldn't be that good, would it?
3: Very importantly, THIS IS NOT AN RP. I WILL BE WRITING THIS AS A STORY.
4: Even more importantly, have fun!

See you onstage!

I'm joining this! Or rather, Mandy, Critic, and Hobbes are. It's been a while since I've used them. I think a lot of newer CBers have likely never met them since sorta they've been on an unofficial hiatus ever since the 2nd AE Conflict.
I don't have time to make the character sheets right now (I'm at the airport actually), but I definitely will as soon as I can.

None of my AEs have last names, by the way, since my CB-self doesn't either.
——
Full Name Of AE: Amanda (please call her Mandy, though)
Age: #AEsAreAgeless, looks 13-ish
Appearance: Mandy has sectoral heterochromia— One eye is fully hazel, and the other is partially colored pale green. She has soft, collarbone-length caramel hair that is usually up in space buns. Her face is constantly adorned with a wide, slanted grin and a sprinkling of cinnamon-sugar freckles. Mandy likes the colors pink and blue, strawberry lip gloss, and swirly skirts.
Personality: Mandy is not quite crazy, and not quite sane either. She is bouncy, cheerful, and adores muffins. Mandy does her best to be friendly, but often goes overboard to the point of being offputting or creepy. However, she is loyal, enthusiastic, and determined. She is extremely naive, somewhat of a crybaby, and is frequently teased by Critic and Hobbes.
Audition Song: Everlasting, from Tuck Everlasting
First Choice Part: Little Red
Second choice: Jack (if genderblind casting is okay)
Third choice: Baker's wife (she's probably not old enough, but she's making me put this because bakers = muffins)
Other: N/A

Age: #AEsAreAgeless, looks 15-ish
Appearance: Critic has mid-back length, brown-black hair that she usually puts up in two Dutch braids. She has almond-shaped eyes, wears squarish blue glasses, and is practically blind without them. (She's religiously against contact lenses.) She doesn't like makeup and will refuse to wear it. A likes fuzzy boots, glitter gel pens and grey/black colors.
Personality: Critic is book-smart but not streetwise. Most of her friendships are built upon books rather than actual emotional connections. Because of this, she has difficulty interacting with people and is actually quite lonely, despite how effectively she hides it between snark and sarcasm. She's an extreme perfectionist, and possesses that rare overconfident, swaggering manner that only the truly insecure can really pull off.
Audition Song: Requiem from Dear Evan Hansen (only Zoe's part)
First Choice Part: Narrator
Second choice: Witch
Third choice: Cinderella
———
Full Name Of AE: Hobbes
Age: #AEsAreAgeless, looks 16-ish
Appearance: Hobbes has darting, dark brown eyes, a beakish nose and square face. He has black hair, long and shaggy, never brushed, covering his eyes. He is tall and lanky, with limbs a little too long for his body. Hobbes likes
Personality: Hobbes is moody, quiet, and intelligent in the way a politician is— He knows how to get what he wants in the most efficent way possible. He's darkly logical, blunt, and never sugarcoats things. He is easily suspicious and has quite an ego. He'll go back on promises he's made to others in order to save his own skin.

Third choice: Cinderella's Prince

ALL RIGHT FOLKS, YOU'RE GOING IN THIS.
Oh, EG, I have a question. Could Cú try out for orchestra? (I'll put parts just in case, but that'll be her first choice.)
Full Name Of AE: Devil Owl
Age: AGELESS, MAN!
Appearance: Dev's hair is long, dyed purple, and though he usually keeps it back in a ponytail, with it down he looks remarkably feminine (mainly because he's trans). His eyes and sweatshirt are both also purple, his jeans and Converse turned that way with magic marker.
Personality: Absolutely insane. He adores ticking people off in any way he can, especially if it involves slapstick or being loud. He feins dumbness, often misspelling words or misusing the English language. He gets either overly enthusiastic about something, or incredibly sullen.
Song they are auditioning with (It doesn't have to be from the musical): "The Real Slim Shady," Eminem
(NOT MY IDEA, FYI)
Part they are Auditioning for: WITCH!
Second choice: WOLF!
Third choice: Jack's Mother
Other: Dev's a good rapper but not much else, so I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't get in at all.
Full Name Of AE: Feather
Age: Ageless, of course.
Appearance: Dirty blond hair in a bob, usually accompanied by a hard blue headband that matches her eyes. Feather wears a classic schoolgirl uniform, with high socks, a pleated skirt, and a button-up shirt with a vest. Her face is full of freckles.
Personality: Feather is a grammar freak - her most distinguishing trait. She can be snappy and sassy, especially towards Dev, but is also a bit of a coward, even though she's a black belt in karate. She's generally obedient, but if she disagrees with you, you'll definitely know.
Song they are auditioning with It doesn't have to be from the musical): "When I Grow Up," Matilda
Part they are Auditioning for: Cinderella
Second choice: Narrator
Third choice: Rapunzel
Other: N/A
Full Name Of AE: Cú Chulainn
Age: Didn't you learn from the other two?
Appearance: Cú's hair is long, red, and curly. Her eyes are green, her face freckled. She generally wears a green hurling uniform with the Irish flag.
Personality: Brash and blunt, Cú speaks what's on her mind, but she can make even the rudest things seem funny with her bounce-back attitude and quick wit. She has a quick temper and doesn't regret violence. She's good at making allies and diplomacy, staying on everyone's good side.
Song they are auditioning with It doesn't have to be from the musical): On violin, Lindsey Stirling's adaptation of the Phantom of the Opera medley. On vocals, Regina Spektor's "Eet."
Part they are Auditioning for: Orchestra
Second choice: Red Riding Hood
Third choice: Baker's Wife
