We are thrilled to announce our fabulous production team for The Drowsy Chaperone:
Director - Izzy Osbourne
Musical Director - Andrew MacFarlane
Choreographer - Claire Lewis
We know you're eager to hear about the audition details, so we're sharing those now to make sure you know what's happening
Firstly, if you don’t know the show, 'Drowsy' has a large and varied cast - up to 18 roles of different sizes, with plenty of opportunity for dancing/singing/acting. Whether you're looking for a chorus part or yearn to be Drowsy herself, we have something for you.
Secondly, there will be two rounds of auditions, both taking place at the Calder Bookshop (51 The Cut, SE1 8LF). The nearest station is Waterloo.
Round 1
Slots: Monday 11th July OR Friday 15th July (both 7pm-9pm)
You don't need to book a time, just turn up on one of the evenings.
Please prepare a song of your choice that best suits your voice (with the piano sheet music if you need accompanying). There will also be a short acting audition - extract to be provided on the night.
If you can't make either of the Round 1 audition dates then don't panic - email the secretaries (Alex and Sophie) - rollers.theatrecompany@gmail.com - and we'll work it out.
Round 2 (Call backs)
Slots: Tuesday 19th July OR Wednesday 20th July (both 7pm-9pm)
You will be told which evening you should attend.
In this round, we will be teaching a song from the show and some brief choreography, so you don't need to prepare anything beforehand.
Can’t wait to see you there. And to all those auditioning - GOOD LUCK!
