ABOUT THE SHOW

The winner of six Tony Awards (including Best Musical), the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album, and an Olivier Award for Best Musical, Dear Evan Hansen is a deeply personal and profoundly contemporary musical about life and the way we live it. The show features a book by Tony Award-winner Steven Levenson (Fosse/Verdon), and a score by Grammy, Tony and Academy Award winners Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (Dogfight, La La Land, The Greatest Showman).

ROLES

Evan Hansen
Vocal range: G2 – C5
Smart, sincere, and excruciatingly self-conscious, Evan prefers to hover in the background, a supporting player in his own life, too afraid to step forward into the spotlight and risk ridicule or, what might be worse, no one noticing him at all.

Heidi Hansen
Vocal range: F3 – Eb5
Evan’s mother. Overworked and stretched too thin, Heidi loves her son fiercely, but fears they have begun to grow apart. She is prepared to do anything to repair the damage.

Zoe Murphy
Vocal range: F3 – E5
Sensitive and sophisticated, with a sharp sense of humor, Zoe could care less about the status games and popularity rites of high school. She feels a terrible ambivalence over her brother’s death.

Connor Murphy
Vocal range: C3 – G#4
An angry, disaffected loner, Connor has been a troubled kid for as long as anyone can remember, an enigma and a source of endless consternation to his long-suffering parents.

Cynthia Murphy
Vocal range: F3 – E5
Connor and Zoe’s mother. To Evan, she seems to be the perfect mother, nurturing, available, and willing to talk about anything. To her own children, it’s a bit more complicated.

Larry Murphy
Vocal range: Bb2 – G4
Connor and Zoe’s father. Though often tense and taciturn, Larry shows a different face to the world, representing for Evan the dad he always wished for: strong, confident, and more than anything, reliable, someone to be counted on.

Jared Kleinman
Vocal range: D3 – B4
Droll and sarcastic, Jared covers his own insecurities with a well-practiced swagger and a know-it-all arrogance.

Alana Beck
Vocal range: F3 – E5
Earnest to a fault, prone to melodrama, Alana hides a deeper loneliness beneath an ever-present smile and an almost aggressive friendliness.

Ensemble
Seeking strong singers and actors to play a range of supporting roles.

ABOUT THE SHOW

By Tennessee Williams, one of the greatest 20th century American playwrights, The Glass Menagerie, an intimate and beautiful story about family, dreams and the weight of the past, resonates across generations with deeply relatable characters and emotions.

From her cramped St. Louis apartment, Amanda Wingfield dreams of her days as a Southern debutante while worrying about the future of her aimless son Tom and unmarried daughter Laura. With their father absent and the Great Depression in motion, the siblings find comfort in their foibles — alcohol, movies and writing for Tom and a collection of glass animals for Laura — which only heightens Amanda’s anxiety. When a gentleman caller arrives for dinner, the Wingfields are flooded with hope. But it’s unclear if his presence will change things for the better or shatter their fragile illusions.

By Tennessee Williams

Directed by Troy Nickerson

ROLES

AMANDA WINGFIELD (the mother)
A little woman of great but confused vitality clinging frantically to another time and place. Her characterization must be carefully created, not copied from type. She is not paranoiac, but her life is paranoia. There is much to admire in Amanda, and as much to love and pity as there is to laugh at. Certainly she has endurance and a kind of heroism, and though her foolishness makes her unwittingly cruel at times, there is tenderness in her slight person.

LAURA WINGFIELD (her daughter)
Amanda, having failed to establish contact with reality, continues to live vitally in her illusions, but Laura’s situation is even graver. A childhood illness has left her crippled, one leg slightly shorter than the other, and held in a brace. This defect need not be more than suggested on the stage. Stemming from this, Laura’s separation increases till she is like a piece of her own glass collection, too exquisitely fragile to move from the shelf.

TOM WINGFIELD (her son)
And the narrator of the play. A poet with a job in a warehouse. His nature is not remorseless, but to escape from a trap he has to act without pity.

JIM O’CONNOR (the gentleman caller)
A nice, ordinary, young man.

ABOUT THE SHOW

Based on the famous novel by Victor Hugo, author of Les Misérables, and the much-loved Disney film, The Hunchback of Notre Dame is a grand-scale musical about love, acceptance, and what it means to be a hero.

As the bells of Notre Dame sound through the famed medieval cathedral, bellringer Quasimodo observes all of Paris reveling in the Feast of Fools. Quasimodo escapes from his devious captor Archdeacon Frollo and joins the boisterous crowd, only to be treated cruelly by all but the beautiful Esmeralda. Quasimodo is captivated by Esmeralda’s free spirit, but Frollo and the new captain of the guard, Phoebus, have desired for her as well. As he finds himself in growing danger, Quasimodo must find the inner strength and courage to stand for what is right against powerful enemies.

ROLES

QUASIMODO
20-30
The bell-ringer of Notre Dame and Claude Frollo’s charge. Born with physical conditions which have caused him to be misunderstood and ostracized. Lonely and staunchly obedient to Frollo, he possesses a vivid imagination that brings to life the bells and gargoyles of the cathedral. Despite his shyness and uncertainty, he quickly befriends Esmeralda. Big-hearted, and brave when need be. Vocal Range: Bari/tenor Bb2-Bb4

CLAUDE FROLLO
40-50
Archdeacon of Notre Dame Cathedral and the most powerful cleric in Paris, he is the reluctant caretaker of Quasimodo. He will do whatever it takes to rid the city of the Romani “vermin” peasants, even as he lusts after Esmeralda. Calculating, manipulative, and obsessive. Vocal Range: Bass, E2-D4

ESMERALDA
20-30
A beautiful and free-spirited Romani woman who possesses the strong sense of justice and morality that Frollo lacks. Compassionate, she frees Quasimodo from the frenzied mob at the Feast of Fools and, against her better judgment, falls for the cocky Phoebus. Featured dancer. Vocal Range: Eb3-Db5

CAPTAIN PHOEBUS DE MARTIN
25-40
Returning to Paris after serving in the war, Phoebus takes up his new position as Captain of the Cathedral Guard. Overconfident yet charming, this handsome, strong soldier makes the ladies swoon, yet his moral compass is also strong, and he openly defies the corrupted Frollo. Vocal Range: Ab2 – Ab4

CLOPIN TROUILLEFOU
30-40
The clever and charismatic King of the Roma. An air of mystery surrounds Clopin, who often leaves the scene in a puff of smoke. As the master of ceremonies for the Feast of Fools, he is witty and playful, but he boasts a darker, serious nature when not performing for the crowd. Vocal Range: C3-G4

JEHAN FROLLO
20-30
Claude’s reckless younger brother. With Florika, he fathers Quasimodo, who he leaves in his brother’s care. Wild, passionate, and strong-willed. Vocal Range: Baritone G#2-Eb4

SAINT APHRODISIUS
30-50
The saint depicted in stained-glass that comes to life. Vocal Range: B2-E4

FLORIKA
20-30
A Romani woman and Quasimodo’s mother. Vocal Range: C#4-F5

FATHER DUPIN

A priest of Notre Dame and guardian to Claude and Jehan. Vocal Range: C4-A4

LIEUTENANT FREDERIC CHARLUS
20-30
Lieutenant of the Cathedral Guard and loyal friend to Phoebus.

KING LOUIS XI
20-50
King of France, nicknamed the Prudent.

MADAM
35-50
Owner of a brothel and safe haven for the Roma.
