What is Principal and Alternate Casts
Principal Casts
![Imaginarium Theater Event Guide and Gameplay Overview | Genshin Impact (2) Imaginarium Theater Event Guide and Gameplay Overview | Genshin Impact (2)](https://i0.wp.com/i0.wp.com/traveler.gg/wp-content/uploads/image-4306.png?fit=1733%2C710&ssl=1)
Principal Cast is the pool of Opening Characters that can be used directly when the gameplay challenges begin, and can be directly added to your team for combat. Travelers can use the Trial Characters provided or their own characters (as can be seen in the image above).
TLDR: Principal Cast are the characters you can use when entering any battle challenges in Imaginarium Theater.
Alternate Casts
![Imaginarium Theater Event Guide and Gameplay Overview | Genshin Impact (3) Imaginarium Theater Event Guide and Gameplay Overview | Genshin Impact (3)](https://i0.wp.com/i0.wp.com/traveler.gg/wp-content/uploads/image-4307.png?fit=1724%2C871&ssl=1)
Alternate Casts is the combination of Special Guest Stars (that don’t require to match the elements) and Available Characters (your own characters that match the elements). The characters that were chosen can NOT be used directly when the challenge started. Instead, Travelers must complete Combat Events, trigger Companion Events, or use other methods in order for Alternate Cast members to join the Principal Cast.
TLDR: Alternate Cast are the characters that you will bring but cannot use right off the bat in battle challenges and need to unlock them first.
How To Select Characters
Opening Characters
![Imaginarium Theater Event Guide and Gameplay Overview | Genshin Impact (4) Imaginarium Theater Event Guide and Gameplay Overview | Genshin Impact (4)](https://i0.wp.com/i0.wp.com/traveler.gg/wp-content/uploads/image-4308.png?fit=1290%2C813&ssl=1)
6 characters are designated at the start of each season. These 6 characters will be set as your initial Principal Cast. The Imaginarium Theater will offer a trial version of all 6 characters.

For example: In the first season, only Pyro, Electro, and Anemo characters, as well as Special Guest Stars, may perform in this season’s show.
Supporting Cast

Characters chosen by your friends to offer as support characters, other than your own character.
For example: If you don’t have Kazuha, but your Friend has Kazuha and they add it to the Supporting Cast, you can choose to bring that Kazuha as one of your Alternate Casts. You can only invite one Supporting Cast character from the same friend in each season.
Special Guest Stars
