Characterisation

MUSHNIK

- fairly American accent
- Jewish (Yiddish dialect)
- Loud persona - prefers shouting to talking!
- Puts Seymour down to maintain power (later tries to manipulate Seymour to inherit his wealth, "share the planet, share the wealth" - Mushnik and Son)
- Marginally friendly with Audrey, seems to put up with her rather than appreciating her presence
- Despises the youth - "URCHINS"
- Likes to play detective - dream job(?)

To achieve the accent, I have listened to the film and cast recording versions of Mushnik, and based my vocals and dialect on theirs. This is helpful as I have cue lines that help me maintain the accent, such as "He'll think about it?" at the start of Mushnik and Son.
