Locter International Theatre RP!!!
Okay:so.
You are one of the lucky preformers/stage crew members/composers/coreographers who has been invited to lend your talents to the Locter International Theatre, the famous vaudiville theater, known for it's sensational acts, spectacular performances, and unusual talents. But the "Last true Variety Show on earth" has a few dark secrets.
Why is the left backstage door always found open the next day, even after being locked with the most advanced security? Who is the dark figure who always sits in seat 7A on Wednesday? Why do preformers get strange tics that prevent them from preforming their act? And where are all the dance shoes going? You're charries must band together to figure out these strange happenings, while trying to put on the biggest show of their lives...
You can be a) a preformer b) stage crew c) a coreographer d) a ticketholder, with ability to travel bacstage.
Here is the charrie sheet.

Only two charries max per person, please! Here are mine:
Name:Lissity Creman-Lis, Manager!(note the exclamation point.)
Age:21
Job:Stage Manager
Appearance: Rather short, but when angry, can appear twice her size (figuratively), with long, red hair that is always in a ponytail, two different colored eyes (blue and brown), and always wears black (because duh.) she also always has her headset with her, and a coffee mug (she is seriously addicted to caffene)
Personality:Is very calm normally, but needs everything to be done just right, otherwise her firey sie comes out. She will help people get on and offstage easily.
Other:She is basically in charge of entrances and exits, and set progress. Don't mess with her.
Name:Esther Brown
Age:13
Job: She is a hoofer, which basically means shes a comedy go-to:dances, sings, acts, does comedy well. Like Cosmo Brown (a.k.a Donald O'Connor) in Singin' in the Rain.
Acts: Does the midtime show called "Lab Time" (a sketch centered around a science lab), any song and dance act, and will help "host" on the "Interview Time!" sketch, witch is really acting, and for people's enjoyment.
Appearance: Has mid-length, curly brown hair, and twinkling brown eyes. Shehas a dusting of freckles on her nose, and when not in a specific costume, she wears a T-shirt, jeans, converse, and a Brooklyn Dodgers baseball cap.
So, that's it! Will come up with a list of acts later. You can also suggest songs from real musicals we can preform!
Okay, I'm leaving.
Bye!

Appearance: Curly dark hair, ususally in a ponytail, wears baseball caps most of the time, tall, brown eyes
Personality: Frankly, she's somewhat scared of Lissity, she's quiet, and does exactly what she's told. She has a few close friends whom she hangs out with, and she's only herself around them.
Other: She's really good at sewing, and used to make her own costumes at home.

Age: 16
Job: Performer
If performer, act: Dance, especially ballet
Appearance: Average height, green eyes, chocolate brown hair, usually in a fancy french braid, graceful

Can Ella and Bridget be friends?
(June 19, 2016 - 11:23 pm)
Sure! By the way, Bridget is ALOT older than Ella. . . do you want Ella to maybe look up to Bridget?
(June 20, 2016 - 1:22 pm)
Oh, ha ha, true, I didn't notice that. Sure, that would work!

I'm going to be out of town for 28 days starting tomorrow, but I really want to be in this RP. So, if possible, if this RP isn't dead, can I step in a little bit late? If not, please don't use my charrie. I could be on vacation/on a break/sick. Please tell me if I can!

Why not try a boy charrie for once?
************
Name: Jackson O'Toole, nickname Jax
Age: 17
Job: Acrobat/comedian
If performer, act: He does a sketch in which he plays the Black Snake Warrior, a stereotypical ninja who's always trying to assassinate Lord White Crane (never seen onstage). Lord White Crane has new defense systems every time - flaming hoops, pools full of alligators (actually actors in costume), etc. - which Jax tries to get past, but he always fails at the last moment in a spectacularly funny way (i.e. falls off something onto a giant whoopee cushion, which makes enormous fart noise and alerts guards).
Appearance: Perpetually messy auburn hair, middling height, blue-green eyes, pale skin with far too many freckles. When not in costume, has never been seen without his iPod and earbuds- enjoys classical music and J-pop, for some reason.
Personality: Horses around a lot; chronically flirtatious. He makes friends easily, but doesn't often lose them. He's never had to deal with any great tragedy; if he does, his cocky, easygoing manner might not last long.
************
Name: Camden Pryce, nickname Cam, callsign Spot One
Age: 20
Job: Spotlight operator
If performer, act: N/A
Appearance: Dark brown hair cut almost boyishly short, hazel eyes, pale skin (doesn't get outside much). Wears black most of the time, even when she doesn't have to for tech purposes.
Personality: A woman of hyperfocus. If she focuses on one thing, it's very hard for anything else to break that focus. This serves her well when she's up the grid working a spotlight, but not so well when her roommate Jess wants to talk to her and she's watching TV. Cool and calculating, but enjoys a challenge and is unlikely to back down if you offer her one. Secretly terrified of Lissity.

And... adding in a spot for OtR's act!
(June 22, 2016 - 3:55 pm)
Hey, Brook, I just wanted to make sure you're okay with this, so I don't manipulate Lissity too much. How about in their posts, both characters are kind of bitter/vilanise the other, but in reality neither is bad?
(June 22, 2016 - 4:41 pm)
@Booksy
That's fine with me! Although Lissity can blow up at people in any of your posts.
(June 23, 2016 - 8:23 am)
Okay, cool, nice to know! Just don't want to controll people. :)
Bridget always keeps everything inside, and hides her true feelings, until she reaches her breaking point and either blows up or starts crying.
