Actor MUST be a classic song and dance man with strong tap and American Musical Theatre jazz technique.
Lise - French/Jewish. The Leslie Caron role from the film. A Strong, smart, young woman. She is guarded but has a beautiful, generous spirit. Actor MUST be an excellent ballet dancer (including pointe) with a good singing voice. French accent required
Henri Baurel - excellent actor and singer (tenor or baritenor). Should have some dance ability, specifically some tap. Henri is the handsome son of wealthy Parisians. Light hearted, raised to assume his father’s position of power, Henri secretly longs to be a song and dance man. Deeply in love with Lise
Adam Hochberg- excellent actor and baritone singer, comfortable with some dance, specifically basic tap. Adam is an American GI, wounded
Milo Davenport - excellent actor and singer (soprano/mix). Should have some dance ability. Milo is an American heiress and art patron who is attractive and bold; a free spirit who knows what she wants
Madam Baurel - excellent actor with fantastic comic timing. Must be comfortable with some singing and dancing. Henri’'s dry, uptight mother, obsessed with appearances, and while commonly self-righteous, she wants the best for her loved ones
