Actors of all cultural backgrounds are strongly encouraged to attend.
ELSA – 20s – Reserved and hesitant, yet inherently regal, Elsa makes a stunning new Queen of Arendelle. However, she has been trained for over a decade to fear and hide her magical powers. Strong belter.
ANNA – late teens/20s – Optimistic, enthusiastic, and slightly disheveled Princess of Arendelle. Naturally funny and courageously fearless, her greatest flaw – and her greatest strength – is her faith in love. Strong belter with soprano/mix.
KRISTOFF – 20s – A human orphan raised by trolls in the forest, Kristoff is a self-reliant ice-cutter whose best friend is a reindeer, for whom he provides a voice so they can have conversations. Kristoff is naturally warm with a good heart, although he’s circumspect about Anna and her mountaintop mission. Baritone.
HANS – 20s – The youngest of thirteen brothers, Prince Hans of the Southern Isles is a real charmer – as handsome as handsome gets. Anna falls for his open wittiness on the spot – he gets her. Tenor.
OLAF – 20s – A big-voiced snowman created by Elsa’s magic, Olaf is pure innocence. He is completely content to be anywhere, doing anything. Bari-tenor
PABBIE – 30s/40s – Ancient, wise, charismatic and gentle patriarch of the Hidden Folk. Baritone. Tall, muscular, striking, handsome, statuesque.
BULDA – 30s/40s – Nurturing, funny, empathetic, and spirited matriarch of the Hidden Folk. Alto.
QUEEN IDUNA – 30s – Elegant, strong, and devoted mother of the princesses. Soprano.
KING AGNARR – 30s – Stern, protective, yet adoring father of two young girls. Tenor.
OAKEN – 30s/40s – Fun-loving, teddy-bear, family-man proprietor of Wandering Oaken’s Trading Post and Sauna. Tenor.
