YOUNG ACTOR CASTING BREAKDOWN
THE VON TRAPP CHILDREN Liesl (age 16) will be played by a professional adult actor, and the younger 6
children will be double cast, alternating performances, for a total of 12 available
roles for young actors.
Friedrich (age 13-15) Eldest son of the Von Trapp Family, shy, intimidated by
his father
Louisa (age 12-14) Second eldest girl, wants to be older than she is, a bit of a
troublemaker and prankster
Kurt (age 10-12) Middle son, proper, kind, sensitive
Brigitta (age 9-11) Independent, direct, like her sister, Louisa, can be a little
bit of a troublemaker, stubborn
Marta (age 7-9) Second youngest, quiet, follows her siblings, charming
Gretl (age 5-8) Sweet, gentle warm and open; the baby of the family
A NOTE ON CASTING from Director Maggie Burrows The Sound of Music is a universal story about love, music, courage and the strength
of the human heart. It is not a story that we will tell with a particular look for the
Von Trapp children. The family will instead be comprised of a diverse group of
children representing all people. We will be casting the children in all different
shapes, ethnicities and sizes. The theater is an imaginative form, not a literal one.
The Von Trapp story is one that appeals and applies to all people and our casting
will reflect that truth.
