We had a large number of young people applying to audition for us and were blown away by the quality of their auditions and the talent they showed us.
This gave us a tough couple of hours deliberating, but we finally have a full cast for Arabian Nights.
Congratulations to all successful candidates, and commiserations those that did not make the cast this time. It’s so sad to have to turn away talented youngsters who have put so much time and effort in auditioning. You all did yourselves proud and we would have included everyone if we could fit you all on stage and in the dressing rooms!
Rehearsals have started already and we had lots of fun at our first script read-through for Arabian Nights.
With tales of treasures, monsters, genies and magic, fabulous music and an amazingly talented cast – we are so excited about this show!
