Screech

Screech the Monkey is a male character, and, as his name suggests, is the loudest and most outspoken of the animals. He lives in the Jungle Exhibit.

Screech is extremely excitable, and easily gets himself worked up into a dither or panic. He is almost always the ringleader of any a capella singing, conducting his fellow animals like a choir. Sometimes his volume gets on the other animal's nerves; it also get's on Mr. Grumble's nerves on occasion. Screech is also a very fast runner; he is the one who sneaks out of the zoo and lures Mr. Grumble back inside to the Christmas Party therein, outrunning the zookeeper and getting there in time to warn the other animals.

Screech's costume should be mostly blacks and dark colors - he should look "cooler" than some of the other animals. He should have short dark hair, and also sideburns if possible. He should wear sunglasses, a thin black turtleneck shirt, and black pants. He should also wear flip-flops, and have a long rope tail carried in a coil over one arm. Alternitavely, he can wear a monkey mask, but this is not encouraged.

Trivia

 * Screech's name was originally Eyi'i, an attempt at spelling typical ape-like screeching noises. He was also a gibbon - not a monkey - in the original short story.
 * Screech can, if absoulutely necessary, be played by a female; as the character is written as a tenor in most songs, this is not encouraged.
