Seeking future replacements for the Broadway Company of THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA.
Christing Daae:
20s: beautiful young singer. Soprano voice that combines elements of classical and pop singing. A light, floaty soprano. She sings briefly to high E.
The Phantom:
30s – 40s: high baritone or tenor (with a good low range) from low A flat to high A flat. Needs a dynamic, bravura, “star” performance, both frightening and irresistible.
Raoul, Vicomte De Chagny:
Late 20s – early 30s: dashing, handsome young aristocrat. High baritone (2 octave range from A flat to A flat).
Firmin & Andre:
Late 30s – 50ish; the managers of the Paris Opera House. Trying to be elegant, they are slightly befuddle and bumbling. Need good instincts for stylish comedy. Good supporting roles. Baritones; one sings to A, one to G.
Carlotta Giudicelli:
30s – EARLY 40s; the prima donna of The Paris Opera. A diva in every sense of the word. Coloratura soprano, to high E. Requires opera training.
Madame Giry:
Late 30s – early 50s; the Opera’s ballet mistress. An ominous, stern, forbidding figure. Mezzo soprano to high B flat.
Meg Giry:
Late teens – early 20s; a member of the Corps de Ballet. Must dance on pointe and sing mezzo soprano to G.
Ubaldo Piangi:
Late 30s – 50s; the opera’s leading tenor, Italian style singer, sings to high C. Requires opera training.
Casting for The Phantom of the Opera is interracial. Dancers of all ethnic backgrounds and races are encouraged to attend.
