Characters

Below are all of the roles auditioning for Feathered‘s June 2026 Tulsa Production!

ICARUS

A young, bright, fiercely hopeful boy whose dreams outgrow the walls around him. Earnest, imaginative, and heartbreakingly naïve. Son of Daedalus. Young Male. Tenor.

APOLLO

God of the light, of music, of civilization, and of prophecy. Young in appearance, ancient in experience. Tender and radiant, yet haunted by the mortals he could not save. Mid/Young Male. Baritone/Tenor.

DAEDALUS

A brilliant but grief-shattered architect. Once the master who built the Labyrinth; now a prisoner of his own despair. Icarus’s father, controlling out of fear, loving out of panic, hurting out of history. Older Male. Bass/Baritone.

THE AURAE

Nymphs of the wind. Guides, chorus, memory-keepers. They often speak as one, but each wind carries her own history.

KLYMENE

The youngest wind. Bright, teasing, hopeful. Mother
of Phaethon. A mirror to Apollo’s fire. Female/Non-binary. Soprano.

NAIARA

The wind of memory. Icarus’s mother, Daedalus’s late
wife. A presence more than a person: loving, watching, powerless,
and quietly condemning. Female/Non-binary. Mezzo-soprano.

NEPHELE

The oldest wind. Dry, sharp, knowing. Mother of
Helle. Cynical of dreamers; wary of flight. Female/Non-binary. Alto.

PHRIXIA and HELLE arc

PHRIXIA

A bold, restless young woman with a heart full of defiance
and tenderness. Protective of Helle, reckless with herself. Female/Non-binary. Alto-Soprano.

HELLE

Sensitive, thoughtful, anxious. A poet at heart who wants to
love quietly in a world that wants her to fear loudly. Female/Non-binary. Alto-Soprano.

PHAETHON arc

PHAETHON

A bright, fragile boy who desperately wants to touch the
sky. A parallel to Icarus; the echo of a myth repeating itself. Young/Mid Male/Nonbinary. Baritone-tenor.

HELIOS

(Played by APOLLO)

ENSEMBLE

Additional company members who aid the tale through movement, voice, and occasionally puppetry. All genders and voice types.

MUSICIANS

We are looking for violin/violists, cellists, and guitarists. The score for this show has a lot of folk/MT influences, and musicians who are able to do minor improv and make their part something of their own are highly encouraged to audition.
