<p>I don’t know if there are really alot of “names” for the types, perhaps engenue, supporting, character, comedic, mature. Most directors have an idea of the type or look they want when they cast and of course vocal type does come in to play ex: young leading male types are often tenors. What types of roles have you been cast in in the past? Do you tend to get cast in dramatic roles (the Beast in B&B) or would you be cast in a comedic role (as in Lumier or Cogsworth in B&B)? As far as maturity would you be cast as Enjouras (sp?) or as Javert in Les Miz? This may help you to understand where you are most likely to be cast. Also some young baritones mature into tenors. My S was almost always cast in baritone roles untill his senior year, when he began to get tenor roles. Now in college he is a full fledged tenor. As far as what colleges are looking for, they need all types, short/tall, leading men and ladies, character/comdedic, mature/young…most colleges basically are putting together ensembles and they need all physical and vocal types to cast.</p>
