Summer of Lore #20: "The Royal Singer"'s Cast List (part 1)

These are some of the more prominent roles in "The Royal Singer"

Merneth Royagorn-The hero of the story, he is a tenor voice. The actor playing him should know how to fight with various weapons, dance, cast some show spells, and play the harp (one of the rare times a character other than the narrator gets to play a harp)

Amara Royagorn--Merneth's wife, she is an alto voice. The actor playing her should know how to dance and use a bow

Dylan and Lyria, their children

The King--the villain of the story, he is a baritone on the bass side. The actor playing him should know how to fight using various weapons

Prince Fermaine--The King's son, he is actually kinder than his father, and vows that he will be a kind, wise, and just ruler when he ascends the throne, unlike his father. He is a tenor voice, and the actor playing him must know how to fight with various weapons

Miriara-Prince Fermaine's guardian, she is very wise, and the first one to suspect what the King is REALLY doing. She is a soprano voice, and the actor playing her should know some basic show spells (spells that stand in for actual spells in the play--they look cool, but don't actually do anything)

Padern--the minstrel that narrates the story and interacts with the characters onstage. He is a tenor voice, and should know how to play a variety of instruments.

The Dark Conquerer--the demon the King is trying to summon (he is a bass voice); he is portrayed as a large puppet that resembles a knight in black armor (he requires three people to perform--one to do the voice, one to work the left arm and leg, and a third to work the right arm and leg
