Calling all conductors/music directors/people with music theory!

I need your help with a really specific part of the forthcoming JCS book.

There is a chapter where I break down the characters, providing basic info about them in the show, recommended reading for cast or creatives who like to construct backstories or find a motivation that isn't in the script (let's face it, this is the Bible, everyone and their mom has an opinion and wrote a book, and occasionally they're useful), sort of a mini-profile. As part of that, I include vocal ranges, excerpted from audition notices or other sources.

I've been relying on four sources so far:

A handwritten document compiled by an MTI employee at some point in the '90s when MTI licensed it.

A set of vocal ranges from the late JCS.net that the proprietor knew was wrong but threw up online anyway, hoping someone would write in and offer assistance.

A set from Ted Neeley's most recent U.S. live tour (2006-10).

Another from the currently running 50th-anniversary national tour.

Here's the thing: they differ enough in places that I don't know if one is more correct than the other, or if the truth lies somewhere in between.

I understand this isn't an exact science. Two things will often mess up vocal ranges: one is that a lot of scores write male vocals in treble clef and don't consider it sounding an octave down, and the other is that on keyboards, there are two standards of what is middle C, depending on the manufacturer. But…

…would someone like to help me hash it out, comparing ranges provided to the scores and determining which is correct (or closest to it), so I can put the most accurate info in the book? (Scores and ranges will be provided.)

More random Nimona headcanons

Bal is one of those people who isn’t allergic to anything except one random medication that no one uses 

Ambrosius calls him a lucky bastard every time it’s brought up because he’s allergic to everything 

His allergy list is at least three pages long and he doesn’t remember a single thing on that list 

Whenever they go out to eat Bal has to remind him “No you can’t eat that it has olives” “Not that either love it’s got lemon” and so on 

Most of his allergic reactions are pretty tame so he’ll eat it anyway

And it gives Bal and Nimona so much fucking anxiety 

One time Bal walked in on Nimona chasing Ambrosius around the kitchen yelling “Spit out the carrots Nemesis you don’t even like them that much!!” 

Whenever he eats alone he refers to it as a game of Russian roulette 

Bal refers to it as the reason he has high blood pressure

Because Bal and Ambrosius grew up in the limelight (for very different reasons) there are a million pictures of them through the years 

And they use those videos to bully the hell out of each other 

Bal can quote the video from the beginning of the movie not because it was an important moment in his childhood 

But because Ambrosius will quote it at the most random times throughout the day

Bal will do something small like kill a bug or chase out an animal that Nimona brought in

And he’ll hear Ambrosius mumble “I’m here to slay monsters and protect our kingdom”

He was a little worried Nimona would react badly to this habit but he started joining in 

One time he killed a spider and Ambrosius asks “Are you slaying monsters moonbeam?” Nimona yells from the other room “I’m so proud of him he’s truly protecting our kingdom” 

There are a million photos of baby Ambrosius on the internet 

And Bal made a PowerPoint presentation ranking their cuteness factor out of 10 (100 was the lowest score he got and it was a picture of him with the ugliest bowl cut you’ve ever seen)

And made Ambrosius sit through it 

That was the most loved and mortified he had felt in a long time

Nimona uses low-quality pictures of them as reaction photos 

There have been times when Nimona asks “Can we eat out tonight” and Bal tells her no and she sends him this 

He’ll text back “Is that my fucking wanted poster?!” 

She asked Ambrosius if there was any ice cream left and he said no he expected her to call him and complain he didn’t expect this 

He calls her yelling “When the fuck did that happen?!” 

And she hangs up immediately to let Bal deal with it

I think if they actually do make a movie musical of The Outsiders, they should change it a bit. Let’s put it in modern day, maybe 2006? And maybe let’s change the school, basing it off Will Rogers is too on the nose. East High School sounds vague enough. And the whole conflict over soc vs greaser is wayy too violent… what about if it was still about society, but basketball vs musical? And Cherry Valance is too much of a typical girl, let’s make her a science and math girl. Also, Ponyboy Curtis is too crazy of a name.. what about Troy Bolton as a name? Let’s also release this on Disney Channel
