AVAILABLE ROLES

Enjolras

Enjolras is the student leader. He is handsome, brave, and daring, although youthful. He combines his revolutionary ideals with strong, charismatic leadership. Enjolras is one of the more difficult roles to cast. He should be a natural leader oozing with charisma and have a very strong high baritone or a tenor voice.

Vocal range: A2 - G4

Grantaire

Grantaire is the opposite of Enjolras. He believes in nothing. Although he admires Enjolras, he loves to mock him. Witty and drunken, Grantaire is happy being with the group, and they put up with him because of his good humor.

Vocal Range: A3 - F#4

Ensemble

The ensemble for this production will likely be the busiest. They will be in all group numbers and fill in 20+ named roles. All ensemble members will have a minimum of one solo through the show. Some female ensemble members will likely double as male characters in the ABC society and barricade scenes.
