Children invited to audition for Nativity! The Musical heading to Wolverhampton Grand
Following two successful years in 2017 and 2018, the producers of Nativity! The Musical have announced auditions for youngsters.
The 2019 tour will open at Wolverhampton Grand Theatre on October 29, and the producers have announced auditions for the show in the city.
Local children will have a chance to star in the critically acclaimed show in roles such as the Star, Angel, Gabriel, Shepherd and many more.
Debbie Isitt, creator and director of the show, said: “The Midlands has so many talented children and every year I am so thrilled with the turn out at auditions.
"I’m absolutely delighted that we are holding auditions in Wolverhampton and I can’t wait to see what the children of this city and from all over the Midlands have to offer.
"Nativity! The Musical is so full of joy and we can’t wait to create another magical, family stage show for a third year."
Auditions will be held in Wolverhampton on May 25 and 26, with recalls on the 6 and 7 June.
Rehearsals will be taking place in Wolverhampton from September 23. Performances will then begin in Wolverhampton on October 29, followed by a UK tour ending in London on December 29.
All children auditioning must be confident singers, dancers and performers due to the demands of the role.
They must also be living in the Midlands area, aged between nine and 11, approximately no taller than 4"5 inches, and available for all of the rehearsals and performance dates across the whole UK tour.
To audition, children must apply with child casting directors, Keston and Keston, and not through the Grand Theatre directly.
The closing date for applications is May 16. Successful applicants will be contacted by Keston and Keston directly with details of where the auditions are taking place.
