Aladdin - the rock panto

ALTONA CITY THEATRE is holding auditions for our 2012 panto next week... ALADDIN - the rock panto Monday 12th December from 7pm to 10pm Tuesday 13th December from 7pm to 10pm Wednesday 14th December from 7pm to 10pm Thursday 15th December from 7pm to 10pm (Callbacks: Sunday 18th December from 11am to 4pm) ------------------------------------------------------------ Aladdin (the Rock Panto) is set against the backdrop of Peking. The country and the Kingdom is broke – all they can do is sell sand! The evil Abanazar has discovered the secret of a magic lamp and wants to rule the world with its power. Meanwhile, the Grand Vizier has plans to marry her son Pekoe to the Princess, so she can gain power over the Kingdom. But Pekoe has other interests... namely himself. When Aladdin sees the Princess for the first time he falls in love and vows to win her affections. A long lost uncle appears and tells Aladdin that if he finds a valuable lamp he will be granted everything he wants! Will Aladdin win the Princess's heart? Will the Genie side with Aladdin or the evil Abanazar? Will Pekoe love anyone but himself? Will the servants get a break? For over two decades our annual pantomimes have been providing new performers with a great opportunity to learn about theatre in a fun and relaxed environment - whether you're young or old, an experienced or inexperienced performer, we'd love to have you audition for this amazing production. ------------------------------------------------------------ Auditions will be held not at the theatre, but at the Hobsons Bay Community Workshop facility at 280 Queen Street (there is a map on the website) Rehearsals will commence Sunday 15th January 2012.
