(vocal range: G2 to D4) Wonderful roles for performers with natural stage presence and big, clear voices. These characters are important for setting up the world and moving the story forward with bold energy! These must be strong singers capable of singing harmonies in a trio.
(vocal range: A3 to G4) He may be a big, scary, green ogre to the rest of the world, but as the story reveals, he's really just a big fellow with a big heart. Shrek needs to be a solid singer, and most importantly, an excellent actor with comedic chops.
( vocal range: Gb2 to F#4) She may appear to be an ideal princess straight from the fairy tale books, but there is more to her than that stereotypical image. She is an audacious young lady with a wonderful sense of humor andsurprisingly-manners akin to those of a teenage boy. We need a girl who can do it al: act, sing and dance. This is a premiere role for an experienced performer with a loveable spirit.
(vocal range: A3 to Eb4) A very short man with gargantuan ambition! He is solely interested in gaining as much power as possible. This is a role for a good singer, but most importantly, a fantastic comedian who isn't afraid of making bold choices or looking silly.
(vocal range: D3 to E4) A brash, loud, fast-talking animal with no concept of "quiet time." This is a great role for an experienced performer who can sing well and has a whole lot of presence and character. Donkey complements Shrek well as his loyal and ever-faithful sidekick.
(vocal range: G2 to F4) A breakout role for a performer with a lot of soul and spunk. She is a ferocious fire-breathing dragon but finds a surprising love in Donkey. This performer should have tremendous presence and a good pop singing voice.
