11 roles
Archdeacon of Notre Dame Cathedral and the most powerful cleric in Paris, he is the reluctant caretaker of Quasimodo. He will do whatever it takes to rid the city of the Roma “vermin,” even as he lusts after Esmeralda. Calculating, manipulative, and obsessive. Must sing well. Does not dance. (D4-E2)
Claude’s reckless younger brother. With Florika, he fathers Quasimodo, who he leaves in his brother’s care. Wild, passionate, and strong-willed. Will also play a Congregant. (Eb4-G#2)
A Romani woman and Quasimodo’s mother. Will also play a Congregant. (F5-C#4)
A priest of Notre Dame and Claude and Jehan’s guardian. Will also play a Congregant. (A4-C4)
The deformed bellringer of Notre Dame and Claude Frollo’s charge. Lonely and staunchly obedient to Frollo, he possesses a vivid imagination that brings to life the bells and gargoyles of the cathedral. Despite his shyness and uncertainty, he quickly befriends Esmeralda. Big-hearted, and brave when need be. Must sing well. Although Quasimodo does not dance, the role requires physicality. (Bb4-Bb2).
The clever and charismatic Leader of the Roma. An air of mystery surrounds Clopin, who often leaves the scene in a puff of smoke. As the master of ceremonies for the Feast of Fools, Clopin is witty and playful, but boasts a darker, serious nature when not performing for the crowd. (G4-C3)
Returning to Paris after serving in the war, Phoebus takes up his new position as Captain of the Cathedral Guard. Overconfident yet charming, this handsome, strong soldier makes the ladies swoon, yet his moral compass is also strong, and he openly defies the corrupted Frollo. (Ab4-Ab2)
Lieutenant of the Cathedral Guard and loyal friend to Phoebus
A beautiful and free-spirited Romani woman who possesses the strong sense of justice and morality that Frollo lacks. Compassionate, she frees Quasimodo from the frenzied mob at the Feast of Fools and, against her better judgment, falls for the cocky Phoebus. Must dance well. (Db5-Eb3)
