ELLABoth genders18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Though no one notices her beneath her rags and quiet demeanor, she is realistic, charismatic, passionate, beautiful and funny. Idealistic and hopeful, she courageously challenges the prince to change the policies in his kingdom – and helps him discover who he truly is. She is determined to see the good in everyone despite the hardships and suffering. See her blossom into a confident woman. (Female identifying character, Soprano).

TOPHERBoth genders18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

A misguided and lost prince. Though brave and heroic, he feels lonely and unfulfilled.

MARIEBoth genders18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

A friend to Ella and the town’s resident crazy lady and beggar woman, Marie is actually a fairy godmother in disguise. Wise, warm, quirky, and charming. Marie rewards Ella for her kindness by making her dreams a possibility. (Female Identfying character, Soprano [high A flat - A5]).

MADAMEBoth genders18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Ella’s selfish stepmother. The epitome of vanity and fashion. A ravenous social climber who values wealth, status, and material possessions and can’t stand those who oppose the status quo. Unapologetically dismissive and sometimes cruel, Madame schemes her way up the social ladder. (Female Identifying character, Mezzo/Alto).

GABRIELLEBoth genders18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Ella’s stepsister and daughter of Madame. Encouraged by her mother and sister to value material wealth and social status, she blindly joins them in their abrasive behaviour.

CHARLOTTEBoth genders18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Ella’s stepsister and daughter of Madame. Brash, self-centred, materialistic, snooty, loud, sassy, and bratty, she has a ridiculously high, but unfounded opinion of herself. She never passes up an opportunity to be the centre of attention. (Female Identifying character, Mezzo/Belter).

JEAN-MICHELBoth genders18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

A feisty, passionate peasant determined to make a change for the starving class. Impulsive. A firebrand, but lacks authority and isn’t taken seriously as a revolutionary.

SEBASTIANBoth genders18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

The kingdom’s Lord Chancellor. Though he is Topher’s trusted advisor, he is devious and selfish. Using propganda and dishonesty, he keeps Topher isolated and in the dark about his kingdom.
