ELF THE MUSICAL
BUDDY – (High Baritone/Tenor. Range: Low A flat to High C) Any ethnicity, male identifying, age 30s to 40s but boyish. Born a human but raised at the North Pole as a Christmas Elf, Buddy is eager to find his place in the world. He is a child at heart and that child-like curiosity makes him both endearing and gets him into trouble.
JOVIE – (Mezzo Soprano/Alto. Range: G (below middle C) to High F, strong belt) Any ethnicity, female identifying, age 20s to 30s, warm, funny and comedic. Buddy’s girlfriend. She works at Macy’s and has a bit of a cynical outlook on life and love because of the men she’s dated. She is caught off guard by Buddy’s genuinely big heart.
WALTER – (High Baritone/Tenor. Range: Low A to High G) Any ethnicity, male identifying, age 50s. He is an upscale successful business man who has become cold and distant with his family until Buddy enters their life. He is a workaholic with little time left for enjoying life or appreciating simple things.
EMILY – (Mezzo Soprano. Range: A flat (below middle C) to D, strong belt) Female identifying, age 40s, Walter’s wife. Though she is sweet and willing to take him in, she thinks Buddy is crazy at first. Wishes her husband would spend more time with the family.
