This is Harmony Pearce. She is 20 years old, currently a Junior at McKinley and her concentration is Performance Art (Musical Theatre). She is heterosexual, and it is said she looks like Katie Stevens. Sadly for you she is taken.
WHO WILL I BE? ITS UP TO ME
Harmony has been performing since she was in diapers. Her parents used one of her ultra sounds in Murder, She Wrote, and when she was toddler she was one of the Gerber babies. Maybe once it was her parents dream for her to be an actress, but it soon became something she wanted for herself as well.
Harmony has always been proactive. She doesn’t wait for her dreams to come to her, she chases them. While that may be off putting to some, Harmony swears she doesn’t need the kind of friends who don’t share her same thoughts and values. Sure, it get’s lonely from time to time, but she has all the people she needs in her life, there’s no room for negative Nancy’s.
If was an obvious choice when Harmony requested she attend McKinley. Her last school was okay when it came to academics, and their glee club had come in second at Regionals, but she wanted to be apart of a winning team at a school that would help further her aspirations and opportunities.
Harmony is very involved in school. Anything that looks good on a resume is something that she’ll consider doing. Her days are packed with performance opportunities, advanced classes, and extracurriculars, a mix of things she truly enjoys doing and things she took on to make her appear extra impressive in the future.
This need to impress can be chalked up to two things: the fact that Harmony is incredibly competitive and feels the need to be the best, even when it comes to things like resume building, and the fact that (unsurprisingly), Harmony is a bit of a perfectionist. Her perfectionism stems from the fact that her parents always told her as a child that she needed to be the best that she could be (since they didn’t want their only child to fail). Now she spends her days doing just that. She’s terrified of disappointing anyone if she fails at anything or quits at something, so she always gives all that she can. She knows the pressure she puts on herself is likely to add up over time, but has faith that if she keeps her focus and prioritizes, everything will work out.
Harmony has already decided what her future will entail. She may not be attending NYADA, but she’s making the most of her time at McKinley, where she is majoring in musical theatre. Every spare moment she has is spent making useful connections for the future - anything that may someday help to get her on Broadway is something she’ll do. Harmony dislikes not knowing things, especially pertaining to her future, so she’s doing all she can to make sure that her dream becomes a reality.
Harmony has lived in Ohio almost her whole life (minus a few summer stock engagements) and though she loves her parents and her friends, and though she knows that her situation in Lima is certainly not a bad one, she can’t wait to get out of the place and start living the life that she always dreamed of in New York. She’s been counting down the days until her graduation while still attempting to enjoy her life in small town Ohio as much as possible. It helps that she’s so involved with the arts, though - before she started overloading on artistic distractions she was even more desperate to escape.

@harmonypearce: Ah, yes. Tony Awards time. AKA the best night of the entire year. #artsmatter #theantoinetteperryawards
@harmonypearce: Crossing things off of your to do list is such an amazing feeling. Not as good as a standing ovation, but definitely close.
@harmonypearce: This season on Broadway has been a disappointment, but I just had the best dance workshop I’ve ever had to a song from SpongeBob and now I’m questioning things.
Sugar Motta (+): When you look at Harmony and Sugar, you’d immediately notice how different the two girls are. Harmony with her fierce, confident personality, and Sugar with her fun loving, silly one. Harmony with her chic, simple outfits and Sugar with her bright pink, bold ones. The two girls are different sides of the same coin, and while most are baffled by their friendship, it works perfectly for them.
Hunter Claington (+/-): The whole Troubletones and Duly Noted rivalry, while entertaining and morale boosting, causing quiet a bit of sexual tension. Hunter and Harmony would be the prime example of this. Often throwing passive aggressive comments, or backhanded compliments at each other, it was no surprise when they ended up in a heated make out session in the janitors closet one day. Both too busy for a relationship, and loyal to their team, the two find this arrangement pretty perfect.
Bree Brown (+/-): Both Harmony and Bree have a competitive drive within them and it does make for a few tense conversations during show choir meetings. Although, Bree seems promising enough for a future member of The Troubletones, she’s got a bit of an attitude problem, and Harmony is not looking for another room full of diva’s when she’s the Troubletones’ Captain. So she’s keeping an eye on Bree, while also making it known she’s not in the mood for petty little games, especially if Bree wants her vote into TT.
Brody Weston (+): Brody and Harmony’s parents became close once Brody moved to Lima, as did their kids. Both only children, Brody and Harmony grew to be such good friends that they started acting like each other’s long lost sibling. With Brody being older, he often takes over the protective brother role in Harmony’s life. While she is the wise, younger sister who tells him when he’s being stupid.
