Aladdin

Aladdin, a poor street urchin, longs to make his mother proud, but sometimes loses his way. He's the thief with a heart of gold, we are looking to cast our most charismatic actor with the versatility to play both the playful prankster and romantic lead. He needs  the vocal chops to carry this heavy- singing role

Babkak, Omar, and Kassim

Babkak, Omar, and Kassim are Aladdin's three loyal and playful pals. Babkak is the Agrabahn foodie who loves to snack, kindhearted Omar has a sensitive soul, and stubborn Kassim yearns to be a leader. We are looking for a group that appears to be a truly tight-knit trio of strong singers and actors.

Genie

Genie is the fast-talking, fun-loving, scene- stealing wisecracker who lives in the lamp and yearns to be free. Genie doesn't need to be our strongest singer or dancer – we will look for an actor with great comic timing and a flashy and fun sense of showmanship.

Iago

Iago is the fawning and funny sidekick to Jafar. We will focus on finding an actor who can execute this lackey's many sarcastic asides with comedic flair.

Isir, Manal, and Rajah

Isir, Manal, and Rajah, Jasmine's devoted attendants, keep the Princess grounded with their honesty and openness. Isir, whose name means “inspiration,” is optimistic; Manal, “achievement,” is assertively encouraging; and Rajah, “hope,” is the most protective. We will look for a group with a sense of chemistry, but above all, will cast strong singers who can pull off “These Palace Walls” with aplomb.

Jafar

Jafar is the power-hungry and crooked Grand Vizier. We look to cast a strong actor who can sing and portray both sides of Jafar's two-faced personality – loyal advisor to the Sultan and scheming villain – as well as pull off delicious comedic moments with his lackey, Iago.

Jasmine

Jasmine, the Princess of Agrabah, longs to experience the world outside the palace walls. Curious and assertive, she knows what she wants and craves the freedom to make her own choices. We look to cast a strong actor and singer who can portray both the romantic lead and a young woman caught between her responsibilities to her people and to herself.

Sultan

Sultan, the warm-hearted ruler who dotes on his daugther, is committed to upholding the ancient laws of Agrabah. We will focus on casting an actor who can play this father figure convincingly.

Agrabahns

Agrabahns are the citizens of Agrabah who help to create the bustling marketplace – merchants, shoppers, beggars, guards, etc. Included in this ensemble are the following featured roles:

• The Beggars (3) are a small group with whom Aladdin briefly interacts

• The Apple Vendor is a merchant who reviles the beggars and from whom Jasmine unintentionally steals an apple.

• The Fortune Teller unwittingly helps Aladdin escape the guards in “One Jump Ahead.”

• The Shop Owner is a marketplace vendor from whom Aladdin steals bread.

• Razoul, the rough and commanding head of the palace guards, answers to Jafar..  We look to cast a performer who can portray an intimidating leader.

• The Guards (2) follow Razoul's orders. While there are only two speaking roles, we might include additional guards in our production, who can help Razoul defend the palace during “High Adventure.”

Prince Abdullah is one of Princess Jasmine's haughty and arrogant suitors.


Attendants

The Attendants (2) accompany Prince Abdullah on his journey to Agrabah.
