Please prepare a song from a musical displaying your vocal ability. This can be either unaccompanied or you can bring a backing CD with no vocals. You can also sing a song from Blood Brothers and use our backing track from the show.
The timeslots are 15 minutes but as we will also pair people up to do a bit of reading from the play please be prepared to stay for about an hour.
Please arrive 15 minutes early to fill in your personal details.
Due to the complexity of the musical we will not be able to give parts to people who are involved in other plays at the same time.
The show will run for 3 weeks from the last Friday in November.
