‍

CHARACTERS:

‍

ESMERELDA: Female-identified character, 20s-30s. 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. Vocal range: Eb3-Db5.

‍

CAPT. PHOEBUS DE MARTIN: Male-identified character, mid-20s-40s. 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. Vocal range: Ab2-Ab4.

‍

CLOPIN TROUILLEFOU: Male-identified character, 30s-40s. The clever and charismatic King 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, he is witty and playful, but he boasts a darker, serious nature when not performing for the crowd. Vocal range: C3-G4.

‍

ENSEMBLE / JEHAN FROLLO: Male-identified character, 20s-30s. Claude’s reckless younger brother. With Florika, he fathers Quasimodo, who he leaves in his brother’s care. Wild, passionate, and strong-willed. Vocal range: G#2-Eb4.
