Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe
Wed, 24 June 2009, 04:58 pmOne of my local theatre companies has auditions for this musical coming up at the end of August, and I am keen to find out as much as I can about it. Does anyone know this production at all? Are there any You Tube links of scenes, or even a link to the script that I could follow up?
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated :)
Scary not knowing anyone - I know!
Fri, 26 June 2009, 01:44 pmHey Skybe, I know what you mean about things being a little scary at auditions - particularly if you're not sure on who you might/might not know there. But I'm pretty sure you'll find some friends - I think your lovely Galileo said he was coming down to auditions and there will undoubtedly be a bunch of others you know amongst the hopefuls. And just remember - auditioning at MPAC is no scarier than auditioning anywhere else. Everyone has just the same chance as everyone else and it's the same talent pool as the peeps who audition at MLT and MMD - MPAC just has that awesome stage - and of course our beloved Ms Lawrence, producer-extraordinaire!
As for the directing job - I'm going a little nanas waiting to hear. I hope, I hope, I hope I get it - but some amazingly talented people put in their EOI's this year, so it's going to be really hard for them to pick someone! But I do agree with you Paul - the large numbers of auditionees is much scarier for the Director - I remember feeling light headed looking at the sea of faces we had for Sleeping Beauty (but extremely excited at the same time - so many people there means people bring their absolute 'A' game and you end up with the best of the best) as I'm sure you did for SHOUT.
Anyway, directing the show or not, I will be there with bells on. This is one of my all time favourite stories and I can't wait to be a part of bringing it to life on stage - no matter what capacity I get the chance to, even if it's making coffees for the cast at interval *winks* Looking forward to seeing some familiar faces and hoping to see some fresh new ones - newbies are always welcome to join the family I say :) And yes Skybe, you should convince that sister of yours to come on down too!
