Auditions
Auditions will be held on 1st May at our studios in Smithfield. After applying for an audition, you will receive an email with an audition slot. These are organised by age and cannot be changed. You will also receive the audition pieces by email (please check your Spam folder if the email does not arrive).
Rehearsals
You must be available for the following rehearsals. Please do not audition if you cannot attend these dates. Performers will be asked to leave the cast (without refund) if they miss rehearsals. Allowance will be made for illness if a medical certificate is produced (provided the performer is able to catch-up on anything missed at rehearsal) and commitments that you already have will be taken into consideration but must be noted on your application.

$155 on acceptance of your place in the cast
$95 by 31st July
$95 by 31st September
Siblings who are successful in being cast in either show will receive a $50 reduction on each of their Productions Fees (therefore being required to pay $295 each)

Performers will need to provide their own suitable footwear, underwear and some basic costume items. Exact requirements will be given to cast members during the rehearsals.
The Show
This will be a youth production, not only with a young cast but with young adults aged 18-25 on the production crew. We are aiming to double-cast the principal roles. We will be performing at the Shedley Theatre in Elizabeth and there will be 4 performances.
