SEEKING

  • Satine: Female, 30s. Satine is a star. Beautiful, glamorous, sexy, commanding. Fully aware of her worth. Wicked sense of humor and smart… But beyond this, our heroine has a deep humanity. She has suffered and her wounds are very close to the skin. Heartbreaking. An extremely strong singer. Belt.
  • Christian: Male, 20-30s. A handsome young American. There’s a special intensity and drive behind his easy and natural charm. Not an ingénue, not entirely innocent. A man of quick passion, warm humor, and deep secrets. An incredible singer. High tenor.
  • Henri Toulouse-Lautrec: Male, 30s-40s. The famous French artist. He is a bold visionary and a tough-minded anti-romantic romantic. A doomed genius. Extremely charismatic and fervently eloquent. A strong singer.
  • Zidler: Male, 40s-60s. The M.C. and Impresario of the Moulin Rouge. He seems almost a human caricature – too grand and showy. His manner is sly and insinuating. He’s knowing and wise, crafty and venal. All in all, irresistible. A strong singer.
  • Duke: Male, 30s-40s. A handsome, viral man. Dripping with wealth and power. Old French Aristocracy, modern attitudes and tastes. He carries real class and gravitas. Dangerously sexy. An incredible singer. Tenor.
  • Santiago: Male, 30s, Latin. Santiago is a comically dashing figure. He’s the greatest tango dancer in Paris – and the greatest gigolo. A ferocious Argentinian swashbuckler, he lives for the extravagant torments of love. He’s wild, dangerous and unpredictable, driven by his passionate emotions. A brilliant dancer. An incredible singer. Tenor.
  • Nini: Female, 30s. Lead dancer at the Moulin Rouge. Sharp, ambitious, sexy and cunning. Has all the assets of a real star, except for warmth. Hard and gorgeous as a gemstone. Brilliant dancer. A strong singer.
  • FLATS & HEELS ENSEMBLE DANCERS: 20s to 30s. Amazing, athletic dancers with expertise in multiple dance styles who are strong pop/rock/soul singers. All cover the ensemble and play various roles, including patrons and performers at the Moulin Rouge & the denizens of Montmartre.
