Available Roles/Character Breakdown:

  • Anna - Filled with a tremendous amount of light, energy, and love, Anna is a hopelessly optimistic extrovert at all ages, but as she grows older, she longs for connection with others, especially her sister, Elsa. Each version of this warm and determined princess requires a strong singer with great comic timing.

    • Young Anna Gender: Female Vocal range top: D5 Vocal range bottom: A3

    • Anna Gender: Female Vocal range top: D5 Vocal range bottom: G3

  • Elsa - The elder Princess of Arendelle at different ages. Next in line for the throne, Elsa has been born with magical powers that can overwhelm her when she becomes afraid and harm others if not handled with care. Fearful of hurting anyone, especially her beloved sister, Anna, Elsa becomes anxious and withdrawn as she grows older, before eventually learning to take control of, and become confident in, her powers which she masterfully uses to manipulate the Snow Chorus.

    • Young Elsa Gender: Female Vocal range top: C#5 Vocal range bottom: A3

    • Elsa Gender: Female Vocal range top: D5 Vocal range bottom: F#3

  • King Agnarr - The warm-hearted ruler of Arendelle is committed to protecting both his family and the Townspeople from his eldest daughter's powers. He has one singing solo and must be able to play this father figure convincingly. Gender: Male

  • Queen Iduna - The queen possesses a sense of rightness and kindness that guides her in her protection of her two young girls. A daughter of the Northern Nomads, this queen has the ability to communicate with the Hidden Folk of the mountains and so understands Elsa's powers deeply; must be able to portray this sense of compassion. Gender: Female

  • Pabbie and Bulda - The mystical leaders of the Hidden Folk who have a soft spot for "strays." Ever-benevolent, these parental figures want what's best for Kristoff, even if they are a bit misguided in their efforts. Gender: Any

  • Bishop (Speaking Only) - The bishop officiates the coronation and passing of the crown to Elsa. This spiritual supervisor must communicate to the Townspeople of Arendelle in a serious and formal manner. Gender: Any

  • Kristoff - Kristoff is a hardworking ice harvester. Kristoff has a sarcastic veneer and a rough around-the-edges exterior that hides a big heart. Taken in by the Hidden Folk when he was young, he loves Pabbie and Bulda dearly, but is a bit of a loner with a reindeer for a best friend- until he meets Anna. Must be able to balance a cynical sense of humor with charming banter. Gender: Male Vocal range top: A3 Vocal range bottom: G2

  • Sven (Speaking/Dancing Only) - Sven is a reindeer of few words, fiercely loyal pal to Kristoff, and loves giving the ice harvester a hard time. Must have good comic timing and terrific physical acting skills who can devise a strong movement vocabulary to bring this furry charmer to life. Gender: Any

  • Snow Chorus (Dance Only) - A group of dancers that play the “snow” in this rendition of Frozen. Must be able to dance well and move with passion as Elsa’s powers come to life throughout the play.

  • Hans - The ambitious Prince of the Southern Isles and overlooked thirteenth son of a king. Hans constantly strives to find a way to make good and stand out. He boasts an exceedingly charming facade that fools everyone - including Anna and, ideally, the audience! - into believing he's Prince Charming, when really, he's just a jerk. Must be able to play both sides of this two-faced prince with relish as well as confidently sing the moments of harmony in "Love Is an Open Door." Gender: Male Vocal range top: B3 Vocal range bottom: G2

  • Weselton (Speaking Only) - A visiting duke who possesses a huge inferiority complex. A bombastic, overbearing sycophant, Weselton's sole purpose is to hobnob with influencers and royalty. Gender: Any

  • Olaf - The magical snowman created by Anna and Elsa when they were young. Olaf is endearingly delighted by everything - especially the idea of summer. Goofy and sweet, Olaf should possess a childlike innocence and excellent comic timing. Gender: Any Vocal range top: D4 Vocal range bottom: F#2

  • Oaken - An exceedingly cheerful and convivial wandering salesperson and ardent devotee to all things cozy and comfortable. Oaken's "Hygge" is a showstopper. Must be able to portray the peppy peddler's infectious warmth with flair and good humor. Gender: Any

  • Ensemble - Includes the following roles: Townspeople, Hidden Folk, Castle Staff, Housekeeper, Butler, Handmaiden, Cook, Steward, Guards, Summer Chorus, Oaken's Family Gender: Any
