Roles Details

Title
Carabosse
Content
Carabosse is a high-energy, fast-paced pantomime villain with real presence, attitude, and bite. She blends rock-star power with vampish glamour, creating a bold, theatrical antagonist who owns the stage the moment she enters. This is not a slow, brooding villain; Carabosse is forward-driving, sharp, and unpredictable. She thrives on interaction, audience play, and breaking the fourth wall, with a wicked sense of humour and a strong instinct for comedy. She actively plays with the audience throughout, making them complicit in her schemes and enjoying every second of it.

Importantly, she must be both funny and genuinely threatening. The comedy should never dilute the danger. Carabosse can land a joke one moment and command real menace the next. She has three powerful, belting numbers that showcase her as a commanding vocal force and allow her to fully dominate the stage so a strong vocalist is required.

When balanced correctly, Carabosse should be a true audience favourite, the kind of villain people love to boo, laugh with, and secretly root for. A magnetic, scene-stealing role with huge impact potential.

This track will also appear as ensemble in the opening numbers.

Please note, all cast will be out in the audience 15 minutes before the show start time (not on 3-show days) interacting with audiences and will be required for meet and greets on select performances.
