Casting Performers for "The Prince of Egypt" Show

But with a soulful core. Ages throughout the show, He begins the show as a devil-may-care young man, a bit of a clown and playboy, secure in his privileged identity as a prince of Egypt. But after the devastating discovery that he was born a slave, he grows into the strong and compassionate leader of the Hebrew ebrew people. A high tenor (sings up to Bb) with a thrilling voice and large range. Vocal range: 8b2 to A4

A prince of Egypt, heir to the throne, who ages throughout the show. He loves his brother Moses, but is also quite competitive with him, since Moses's winning personality continually puts him in the shade.

Through trials of great pain over the course of the show, he ultimately becomes a great leader of the Egyptians. Vocal range: 8b2 to A4

Critical piece of the storytelling. These dancers are highly involved throughout the show. They become the Nile, the chariots and horses, the burning bush, etc. Vocal range: All (choral singing)

The High Priest of Egypt. Though pompous and self-important, he is deeply committed to the ancient gods of Egypt and above all fears the heresy of the one god which brought down the previous dynasty.

Vocal range: GF2 to F4

A Midian princess, fiery and rebellious, who ages throughout the show. She is full of spirit and strength, and wants nothing more than for her people to be free.

Moses's Hebrew brother, intellectual, sardonic, skeptical, funny. Aaron has reached an accommodation with his life as a slave; he makes a joke of everything to diminish the pain. Aaron is the last Hebrew to believe in Moses, but when Aaron is finally won over he becomes Moses' most loyal follower. Tenor or high baritone. Vocal range: B2 to G4

Ramses' wife and his Queen of Egypt. Imperious and haughty. Scion of an ancient royal family, keenly aware of her position and her importance to the dynasty.
