SEEKING
- [PAUL BURRELL/MALE ENSEMBLE] – 20s-40s, any ethnicity. Paul is Diana’s very loyal butler and close confidant. He’s very proper but also has a devilish streak. Contemporary high tenor who can easily sing As and Bs and can easily switch between legit and rock vocal styles. FEATURED ENSEMBLE.
- [FEMALE ENSEMBLE DANCER/SINGER, u/s CAMILLA] – 30s. any ethnicity. Fantastic ensemble singer/dancer to cover the role of CAMILLA: female-identifying, Athletic and sensible. She’s bright and loving and well aware of her unusual circumstances. She holds great love for her prince and also holds great influence over him. Contemporary legit mezzo with a strong mix and belt up to a D#. ENSEMBLE.
- [MALE SWING u/s PRINCE CHARLES] – 30s. Any ethnicity. Excellent contemporary dancer with great technique. Must have fantastic contemporary singing voice. CHARLES: male-identifying, Charles is in his early-to-late 30’s for the duration of the play. He’s tall and slender and handsome in the most British of ways. Fiercely intelligent and educated, he’s spent a life hiding his feelings — and he’s gotten quite good at it. He exhibits great rage and passion and confusion in the most Shakespearean of ways. His is a life devoted to duty and honor. Contemporary legit baritone voice (low B-flat to high G). ENSEMBLE.
