15 roles

Dr. Frederick FrankensteinMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Baritone/Tenor (Bb2 – G4). A brilliant, uptight New York brain surgeon and professor. Initially ashamed of his family’s dark past, but gradually embraces his destiny. Comedic, charismatic, and must handle rapid-fire dialogue and physical comedy.

The MonsterMale18-40 y.o.All ethnicities

Bass (D3 – Bb4). The creature brought to life by Frederick. Non-verbal at first, but must display a wide emotional range. Eventually sings, dances, and charms the audience. Requires excellent physical comedy and presence.

IgorMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

(Pronounced “Eye-gore”) - Baritone/Tenor (C3 – G4). Frederick’s eager, bug-eyed servant with a moving hump. Mischievous, witty, and delightfully weird. A great comedic role with lots of physicality and timing.

IngaFemale18-40 y.o.All ethnicities

Soprano (G3 – A5). A yodeling, sexy Transylvanian lab assistant. Sweet, playful, and endearing with a strong comedic streak. Must be comfortable with suggestive humor and dance.

Elizabeth BenningFemale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Mezzo-Soprano (F#3 – F#5) Frederick’s high-maintenance New York socialite fiancée. Dramatic, glamorous, and hilariously self-absorbed. Must be able to sell a big solo number with comic flair.

Frau BlücherFemale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Alto/Mezzo (E3 – E5) The housekeeper with a mysterious past… and a deep love for the late Victor Frankenstein. Dark, intense, and oddly seductive. Classic deadpan humor.

Inspector Hans KempMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Baritone (A2 – F4). The police inspector with a prosthetic arm and leg. Gruff, determined, and over-the-top. Often plays the “straight man” in a world of chaos.

The HermitMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities
