28 roles
Female or Female-Presenting. Anya is brave, fiery, witty, and above all determined. With no memory of her life before age 17 and having lived through the horrors of the Russian Revolution, Anya jumps at the sound of gunshots and is mistrustful of strangers, but there is steel hiding just beneath the surface. Anya is strong-willed and compassionate. Her mantra is "Home, love, family". VOCAL RANGE: G3-F5, Soprano or Mezzo. DANCE REQUIREMENT: Strong movement.
Male or Male-Presenting. Dmitry is a scoundrel with a heart of gold. A street rat who grew into a conman, Dima does all he does to get out of poverty and is not above lying, cheating, and stealing to do so-that is until he meets Anya. VOCAL RANGE: A2-G4, Baritenor. Strong movement.
Male or Male-Presenting. Gleb fully believes in the Communist Ideals he follows. Loyal, honest, and hard working. Gleo almost has the potential to be a hero (he's very much the hero of his own story). A deeply conflItced person, Gleb's infatuation (and borderline obsession) with Anya leads to his battle with the idea of doing one's duty vs. doing what is right. VOCAL RANGE: A2-Gb4, Baritone. DANCE REQUIREMENT: Some movement.
Male or Male/Presenting. Vlad is Dmitry's partner in crime (literally) and surrogate father. Before the revolution he scammed his way through society pretending to be a count. Vlad is dramatic, crafty, and a big softie at heart. While he, like Dmitry, is not above lying, cheating, and stealing, he cares greatly for his loved ones and is generally affable, though he can be calculating when he needs to be. VOCAL RANGE: A2-F4, Comic Baritone. DANCE REQUIREMENT: Strong mover.
Female or Female-Presenting. Lily is the lady in waiting to the Dowager Empress. She has been by the Dowager's side since before the revolution. Lily is clever, dutiful, and above all fun (when not working for the Dowager). She deals with her exile from Russia with a sort of resigned dark humor...and a LOT of vodka. She and Vlad were once an item (unbeknownst to her oblivious husband) and re-kindle their romance upon re-uniting. VOCAL RANGE: G3-05, Jazzy Mezzo. DANCE REQUIREMENT: Strong mover.
Plays 80s. Female or Female Presenting. The Dowager Empress has lost everything she once held dear and must now put up with imposter upon imposter never allowing her to grieve in peace. She is icy, proud, and regal (not to mention intimidating) to all but her family. Though, she does have a very sharp wit. She is especially warm with Anastasia both when a child and after it's revealed that Anya really is the princess. VOCAL RANGE: F3-Bb4, Mezzo. DANCE REQUIREMENT: Minimal.
