The Aristocats KIDS Cast of Characters
The Aristocats KIDS cast list includes charming lead cats, comic animal roles, featured singing parts, and a flexible Alley Cat ensemble that helps move the story along. This show is especially useful for schools that need a large cast with lots of younger performers onstage.
Quick Casting Insight: The Aristocats KIDS works best when you have a charismatic Thomas O’Malley, a mature Duchess, strong Aristokitten chemistry, a comic Edgar, and a large group of Alley Cats who can sing, move, narrate, and help with transitions.
Thomas O'Malley
Thomas O'Malley is the charming and charismatic lead alley cat. He lives as a free spirit with no attachments but secretly desires to be part of a family. This role requires a strong actor, singer, and mover. He should also be comfortable creating chemistry with Duchess. When auditioning, mix and match O'Malley and Duchess hopefuls to find the strongest pairing. The success of the show largely depends on the energy of this leading cat, so cast one of your strongest performers in this role.
Gender: Male | Vocal range: A3–D5
Duchess
Duchess is the elegant and nurturing mother of the Aristokittens. This leading role requires small group singing but no solos, so cast your strongest actor and mover rather than simply your strongest singer. Look for a mature actress who can convey warmth, grace, and a believable maternal presence. Try auditioning Duchess hopefuls with O'Malley and the Aristokittens to see who works best together.
Gender: Female | Vocal range: C4–Db5
Edgar
Edgar is the villainous butler of Madame. He is allergic to the pampered Aristocats and secretly hates tending to them. This leading part requires one of your strongest and most mature performers with excellent acting and singing skills. Cast an actor who can portray a believable sneeze, strong comic timing, and a villainous streak without losing the fun of the show.
Gender: Male | Vocal range: A3–Eb5
Toulouse
Toulouse is one of Duchess’s sons. Since the Aristokittens are in the majority of the scenes but require little solo singing, cast strong actors who can sing well. Toulouse wants to be seen as tougher than he really is and has a small singing solo, so cast accordingly. If possible, the Aristokittens should appear physically smaller than Duchess.
Gender: Any | Vocal range: D4–C5
Berlioz
Berlioz is one of Duchess’s sons. This role is slightly smaller than Toulouse and requires no solo singing, but still benefits from a focused young actor who can stay engaged throughout the show. If possible, the Aristokittens should appear physically smaller than Duchess.
Gender: Any | Vocal range: D4–C5
Marie
Marie is the spirited and sassy daughter of Duchess. She is the youngest child and a charmer like her mother. Since she appears in much of the show and has a small singing solo, cast a stronger actor rather than choosing by voice alone. When auditioning, mix and match Aristokitten hopefuls into different trios to see who works best together.
Gender: Female | Vocal range: F#4–B4
Roquefort
Roquefort is the naïve yet ultimately brave house mouse who overcomes his fears and saves the Aristokittens from Edgar. This role requires a strong singer and character actor who can believably play innocent and frightened. If possible, cast someone physically smaller than the Alley Cats to emphasize his vulnerability when confronting them. Roquefort can be played by either a girl or a boy.
Gender: Any | Vocal range: B3–D6
Madame
Madame is the eccentric and kind human owner of the Aristocats who loves her pets more than anything else in the world. This small character role requires a good actor with the maturity to play a maternal figure. She should also be able to deliver a short singing solo. Since Madame only appears at the beginning and end of the show, consider double casting her as an Alley Cat for the country section.
Gender: Female | Vocal range: C4–A4
General Napoleon
General Napoleon and Private Lafayette are two country dogs in a comedic power struggle. Napoleon is the power-hungry leader, while Lafayette is the not-so-subservient private. These roles do not require solo singing, so cast based on acting and the ability to move like a dog. Since this comic duo feeds off each other, cast actors who work well together. If you have a small cast, consider double casting them as Alley Cats in the opening number and “Ev’rybody Wants to Be a Cat.”
Gender: Any | Vocal range: C4–C#5
Private Lafayette
Private Lafayette is part of the country dog duo with General Napoleon. This role works best with a performer who can play comic opposition, move physically, and work naturally with the actor playing Napoleon. Napoleon and Lafayette can be played by either girls or boys.
Gender: Any | Vocal range: C4–C#5
Vichy
Vichy and Soisse are two privates in the dog army who report to General Napoleon. These are smaller acting roles that require good movers and solid singing voices appropriate for small group singing. If you have a small cast, consider double casting them as Alley Cats in the opening number and “Ev’rybody Wants to Be a Cat.”
Gender: Any | Vocal range: C4–C#5
Soisse
Soisse is one of the privates in the dog army alongside Vichy. This is a good smaller role for a performer who can move well, sing in a small group, and support the comic dog scenes with focus and personality.
Gender: Any | Vocal range: C4–C#5
Amelia
Amelia and Abigail are the bold geese sisters who rescue O'Malley from the river and lead the way out of the country back to Paris. These comedic characters sing a duet but no solos, so cast solid singers and actors. It is also important for Amelia and Abigail to move convincingly as geese. If you have a small cast, consider double casting them as Alley Cats in the opening number and “Ev’rybody Wants to Be a Cat.”
Gender: Female | Vocal range: C#4–C#5
Abigail
Abigail is Amelia’s bold goose sister. She should pair naturally with Amelia and bring strong comic timing, clear movement, and confident small-group singing to the role.
Gender: Female | Vocal range: C#4–C#5
Scat Cat
Scat Cat is the jazzy leader of the Alley Cat narrators. Scat Cat is ultra hip and enjoys introducing the Aristocats to jazz music. This role leads “Ev’rybody Wants to Be a Cat,” so cast a strong singer and smooth mover. Look for a child willing to go over the top with movement and acting improvisation. The more creative and willing to perform outside the box, the better. Scat Cat can be played by either a girl or a boy.
Gender: Any | Vocal range: A3–C#5
The Alley Cats (Hep, Mad, Slick and Wacky)
The Alley Cats, including Hep, Mad, Slick and Wacky, are the glue that holds Disney’s The Aristocats KIDS together. These storytellers set up and comment on the action while also helping execute scene changes. These roles require actors with strong speaking voices who can focus onstage for long periods of time. They should also have good memories for more complicated blocking and transitions. Casting extra Alley Cats is a great way to use additional children. Depending on ability, they can take part in all or some of the production numbers that call for Alley Cats. Use some strong singers in these roles to help fill out the chorus sound.
Why Teachers Choose The Aristocats KIDS
