If ATLA Characters Were Theatre Nerds


This reads like a Tumblr post. I have no explanation. Only facts. 
Aang: The Ringer 
  • First freshman to be cast as a lead in like 100 years 
  • He has the range (musicals, contemporary, period pieces, drama, comedy, improv, absurdism) 
  • So humble nobody can hate him even though they're all super jealous 
  • Always forgets about the sign-in sheet 
  • Entire wardrobe is show shirts
Katara: Stage Manager of Our Hearts
  • Keeper of the first aid kit 
  • Memorizes everyone's lines/blocking and knows immediately if they mess up no matter how minor the mistake 
  • DO NOT TOUCH THE PROP
  • Actively seeks out new people and invites them to participate--also super encouraging to everyone during auditions   
  • Mom friend(TM) until the cast party hits and then you can bet she's blowing off some steam
Sokka: Mr. Student Director Sir
  • Innovative ideas but terrible time management 
  • Ruthless about off-book day 
  • Always wins at Zip Zap Zop 
  • King of changing the blocking every rehearsal right up to tech week
  • Lies and says he'll only be at opening but secretly attends every performance in a disguise
Suki: Stage Combat Queen 
  • Amazing fight skills but not a great dancer so no musicals for you
  • Still cast in like seven minor roles every season bc Sokka always finds a way to work in his combat scene for her
    • Queen of wearing a fake mustache to play a dude because only three guys auditioned
    • Go-to girl if you need help with stage makeup  
    • Love her but she cannot find her light for heck
    Toph: Stage Crew Superhero
    • Was cast in ensemble one time and hated it; switched to stage crew and refuses to do anything else
    • No matter how impossible the scene change, she gets it done y'all
    • Queen of finding misplaced props five seconds before they're needed onstage
    • Special bumpy spike tape because accommodations (WHY DOESN'T THIS EXIST IN REAL LIFE)
      • Fatal flaw is she always, always, always talks backstage at the moment everything is supposed to be silent and the audience can hear 
      Zuko:  Bad Boy? Yeah No
      • Uncle forced him to join theatre club to make new friends and he thought it was dumb at first but now he takes it super seriously
      • Will shush you if he hears you talking backstage and tattles if you eat in costume 
      • There's always that ONE line he will say a million different ways, all of them wrong 
      • Loses his script constantly
      • One time an audience member's phone went off and he almost broke character to give them a piece of his mind 
      Mai: Emo Theatre Kid
      • Brecht is her favorite and that's all you need to know
      • Uses stage makeup as her everyday makeup
      • Has never seen Legally Blonde the Musical and swears she never will
      • Never remembers to take off her nail polish before opening
      • Always plays the Mom/Nurse/Caretaker roles
      Ty Lee: Perpetual Ensemble 
      • Amazing dancer but gets too nervous during auditions so she's always in ensemble
      • Biggest talent is being able to fall asleep anywhere backstage and magically wakeup right before her cue
      • Brings cookies for everyone on opening
      • Knows all the choreography to every song from SIX  
      • Steals all of the bobby pins from wardrobe 
      Jet: "That Guy"
      • Got cast because he's tall and an upperclassman and y'know...only three guys auditioned
      • Never has a pencil to take down notes
      • Misses his cue because he's too busy flirting with the ensemble 
      • Paraphrases his way through his monologue but honestly isn't a bad actor, so they always let it slide...
      •  Nowhere to be found on opening so Katara has to go on in his stead and she's never forgiven him since 
      Azula: The Girl Who Thinks She's Heather Chandler 
      • Writes fictional characters' names in all the spots on the audition sheet so she's the only one who can officially sign up 
      • Gets mad when she's not cast as the lead role and quits because of it
      • Uses Ty Lee's free ticket to attend so she can post on Facebook later about how dumb it was
      • Purposefully shows up 15 minutes late to performances and waits to go to the restroom until intermission is over
      • Is the reason Zuko's script is always missing
