Character descriptions:

Snow White
Female
Brassy and self-assured. The leader of the princess pack who likes to be in control. Also has a loving, maternal instinct. Aspires to be perfect, but she soon realizes that being perfectly ‘you’ is more important. Ethnicity: Any

Cinderella
Female
Perky, quirky, and impish. She’s always enthusiastic, especially when it comes to being a real life princess, but is about to discover that there’s more to being a princess than pretty gowns and shiny glass slippers. Ethnicity: Any

Sleeping Beauty
Female
The perfect comic foil to Snow White. Always the flippant and unpredictable cut-up. She loves to dance (sometimes uncontrollably) and is a fantastic physical comedienne. She enjoys being perfectly and uniquely herself. Ethnicity: Any

Belle
Female
A smart and witty bookworm from classic French lit who inexplicably speaks and sings with an American accent. She chats with inanimate objects, cleans up after her beast of a husband … and it’s slowly driving her insane. Ethnicity: Any

Hua Mulan
Female
A legendary folk hero of Asian descent from the poem The Ballad of Mulan. She has a good-natured sense of humor while maintaining a respect for her culture. She is excited to come out onstage and, through her heartfelt story, reveal her true self. Ethnicity: Asian

The Little Mermaid
Female
Once innocent and obedient, she’s now rowdy and rebellious. Having regretfully given up her seemingly idyllic life under the sea, she copes with her new reality through inappropriate yet hilarious comedy. She is the life of the party! Ethnicity: Any

Pocahontas
Female
Plucky, valiant. She has been homogenized by an entertainment industry willing to distort her true Native-American story just to sell cinema tickets. As she comically mocks her glammed up portrayal in Hollywood cartoons, she is on a journey to restore her authentic, historical self. Ethnicity: Native-American

The Princess Who Kissed The Frog
Female
Having been left out of the kingdom for decades, this Black princess is here to claim her throne and celebrate inclusivity and diversity in fairy tales. Confident; clever with a turn of phrase, loves a funny pop culture reference. Wonderfully witty; joyous. Ethnicity: Black

Rapunzel
Female
American capitalism won’t turn this campy, Mel Brooksian songstress into a damsel in distress. Nein! Brunehildesque, strong, and fun-loving, she’s bent on getting her fair share from those who make bank off fairy tale princesses. Ethnicity: Any

Princess Badroulbadour
Female
Originally from the South-Asian-turned-Middle-Eastern Aladdin sagas, this sultan’s daughter has had enough of being secondary in her own tale. Misogyny begone! It’s a whole new world and this independent and puckish princess is taking her story back! Ethnicity: South-Asian or Middle-Eastern

Before you decide to audition, please seriously consider any potential schedule conflicts or other performance opportunities that may interfere with your commitment to the show you may be cast in.
 

Check the Master Rehearsal and Performance Calendar for this show

Everyone is required to participate in the vocal portion of the audition.
Please be prepared to sing 16 bars of a song from a musical, or a popular song from the 1960s or 1970s.  Pop versions of songs from the show are allowed, but please refrain from auditioning with the material from the production.  We'll provide the accompanist for your vocal audition, but you need to bring the sheet music (in the proper key) with you for your song. Please mark a clear start and stop point for the Accompanist.   If auditioning for GWENDOLYN HOLMES please prepare a 30 second published monologue demonstrating your ability to portray an expressive, uptight advice columnist INSTEAD of a song.

There will not be a dance taught at auditions. 
If a dance audition is needed, it will take place during callbacks.
