CHARACTER BREAKDOWN:
We're seeking a diverse cast and are open to all ethnicities.
PRINCESS AURORA ROSE
Female / Late teens - Late 20's
A beautiful maiden inside and out, enchanted with grace, purity, joy, and a kindred spirit since birth. She is in the Royalty Protection Program under Phantom's care because of a threat of dark magic in Charming Kingdom.
MALEFICENT
Female / 20's - 40's
She is a refined, graceful sort of evil who can effortlessly intimidate her enemies. There are opportunities to add a comical flair to this character, but the overall portrayal should be so severe that the rare moments of humor are unexpected and almost creepy. Please include stage combat and similar training/experience on resume in order to be considered for this role.
KATASTROFI
Male / Late 20's - 40's
His full title is Dark Sorcerer Tenebris Nec Divinos. Dwells in the dark dimension beyond time. He is the cosmic conqueror-- the destroyer of worlds. A being of infinite power and endless hunger on a quest to invade every universe and bring all worlds into the dark dimension. Must have a strong, intimidating presence, but we're open to either a Christoph Waltz type from Inglourious Basterds or a Bane type from Dark Knight Rises.
MORGAN LE FAY
Female / Age 20's - 40's
Equally dark and sinister to Katastrofi, the Dark Sorcerer Tenebris Nec Divinos. Of all the villains in The Lost Pages franchise, she is one of the biggest threats to both fairy- and man-kind. Has a commanding but sophisticated presence that is both captivating and frightening.
FAIRY GODMOTHER
Female / Age 20's - 30's
Beautiful and bubbly, but powerful and forthright when the occasion calls. A respected, high-ranking official of the Fairy Council and the mother to the prophesied Prime Merlinian, but has a penchant for fashion, style, love, and beauty. Think Galinda in Wicked and Elle Woods in Legally Blonde.
RUMPELSTILTSKIN
Male / Age 20's - 30's
Phantom's best friend, but you can never quite trust him because of his lust for power. Seeking a versatile actor capable of both comedy and drama to play this unpredictable, off-kilter character. Scottish/Irish accent are preferred.
MERLIN
Male / Age 50's - 70's
Think Dumbledore from Harry Potter or Gandalf from Lord of the Rings. He is a wise, old wizard who carefully watches over the world of fairies, sorcerers, witches, and wizards.

PRINCE WILLIAM CHARMING
Male / Late teens - Late 20's
He attempts to be a suave, smooth talker. Has a strong physique and is master with the sword. Sadly, he has no clue how slow and dim-witted he is. (Like a combination of James Marsden as Prince Charming in Enchanted and Gaston in Beauty and the Beast). Please include stage combat and similar training/experience on resume in order to be considered for this role.
GLISSANDRA
Female / Age 20's - 50's
The regal and matronly Queen of the Fairies. She is a powerful fairy who helps Merlin with watching over their world of magic while maintaining peaceful relations with the humans of Charming Kingdom.
SERENA
Female / Open to age 20's - 70's
The eccentric sorceress also known as "The Oracle." She can see into the future, but she is constantly fearful, anxious, and agitated because of her visions. Think Professor Trelawney in Harry Potter.
FRANCIS
Female / Late teens - Late 20's
A sweet, happy, and humble handmaiden to Queen Charming. Unexpectedly beautiful.
CINDERELLA
Female / Late teens - Late 20's
A humble and optimistic maiden whose parents died when she was a little girl. She now serves her evil stepmother and stepsisters.
PRINCE SARAH CHARMING
Male / Late Teens - Late 20's
A "mini-me" of his brother William, but even more arrogant and obnoxious. And, quite literally, a "mini-me" because he is much shorter (under 5'6") than Prince William, too. Please include stage combat and similar training/experience on resume in order to be considered for this role.
PUSS IN BOOTS
Male / Age 20's - 30's
Think Puss in Boots in the movie, Shrek. Sly and ferocious with a Spanish accent. Please include stage combat and similar training/experience on resume in order to be considered for this role.
FLORA/FAUNA/MERRIWEATHER
Female / Teens - Late 20's
The pretty, sassy, out-spoken fairies who help protect Aurora Rose while she's in hiding. Open to Jersey, New York, Brooklyn, or Valley Girl accents. Think of a more bubbly version of The Plastics in Mean Girls.

SINISTER
Male / Teens - 30's
An innocent crow-turned-human by Maleficent, who enchanted him to aid her in her evil deeds. Must be convincingly evil, but also have strong comedy skills, as Sinister often finds himself in comedic situations.

Female / Age 50's - 70's
Red's grandmother and a typical sweet, kind old lady, but capable of off-the-wall humor. Betty White type.
