Beauty & the Beast Cast List

BRIGHTON HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL THEATER'S PRODUCTION OF DISNEY'S BEAUTY & THE BEAST - CAST LIST

Note: We are not casting understudies in every role; only a few. Understudies are asked to attend all practices for the role they are understudying. No performances opportunities are guaranteed.

If you are a member of a chorus, you will learn the music for all chorus/ensemble songs, but the choreography/blocking for only the songs in which you are a member of that chorus. For example, if you are a Village Chorus member, you will be on-stage in the opening town scene (“Belle”), in the Tavern Scene (“Gaston”) and in the charge-the-castle scene (“The Mob Song”), and will therefore not only learn the singing, but also the dancing/blocking. However, you will also attend singing rehearsals for the Castle Chorus to learn the music for “Be Our Guest,” “Human Again,” and the “Finale.” You may be called upon to be part of a small, off-stage ensemble that sings in the pit and fills in the vocals for those Castle Chorus songs. That is why we want all chorus members to be at all singing practices for chorus numbers.

Should students not accept their roles, we may choose to shuffle the cast to fill the vacancies (for example, by giving a chorus member a speaking role), or hold an additional casting call depending on the role that needs filled.

We highly encourage students who did not get on-stage roles to continue practicing and to try out again next year. We can also talk to you about suggested areas of improvement. In the meantime, come interview for an off-stage cast position and become part of the cast family!
