Frozen – Character breakdown
Elsa
Next in line to become the new Queen of Arendelle. Born with magical powers that she struggles to control, Elsa’s fear of hurting others pushes her to hide from the world and distance herself from the people she loves most. Underneath all of the fear is a strong, determined leader, waiting for just enough warmth to step out of hiding and take her rightful place on the throne. This is a physically and vocally demanding role for a strong musical theatre belter with soprano/mix.
Gender: Female
Vocal range top: Eb5
Vocal range bottom: E3
Anna
Elsa’s sister, the optimistic, enthusiastic, and slightly disheveled Princess of Arendelle. Spunky, joyful, and charming, Anna defies social decorum and rules in favor of spreading her optimism and light throughout the Kingdom. She loves easily, but feels the rejection of her only sister deeply. She might not have the magical powers that Elsa wields, but her inner strength and resolve is equally fierce. This is a physically and vocally demanding role for a strong musical theatre belter with soprano/mix.
Gender: Female

Kristoff
His sarcastic exterior hides a man with a big heart and a solid sense of right and wrong. Although he is a bit of a loner, Kristoff has developed a personal relationship with his reindeer, Sven, who has been known to intervene when Kristoff’s stubbornness gets in the way of his best interests. Kirstoff was raised by the Hidden Folk, so he doesn’t always know the rules of polite society, and doesn’t really care to learn.

Hans
Prince of the Southern Isles and youngest of thirteen brothers; charming and ambitious. Hans is always on the lookout for opportunities to make a name for himself. He is charming, handsome, and extremely good at reading people – all of which he uses to achieve his own personal goals.

Olaf (Grade 6 to Adult)
Magical snowman with a childlike innocence. Olaf is a loyal friend who loves summer…and warm hugs.
