The Marlowe Theatre, Canterbury to hold pantomime auditions for Cinderella

Youngsters keen to join the cast of this year's Marlowe Theatre pantomime are being invited to auditions next month.

The Canterbury theatre and Evolution Productions is on the lookout for young female performers to be part of Cinderella which this year stars actress Sally Lindsay and children's presenter Phil Gallagher (Mister Maker).

Auditions are being held on Saturday, September 8.

Girls aged between nine and 15 inclusive (as of September 1) can take part in the auditions which begin at 9.30am in The Marlowe Studio.

Potential cast members must be able to commit to the production from the start of rehearsals, say the theatre, until the end of the run.

Rehearsals will start at the beginning of November (November 8) and the last pantomime performance is Sunday, January 6 2019.

The auditions on Sunday, September 8 will last two hours, but those who are successful may be asked to stay longer.

Budding performers should bring no food or drink other than water and come in comfortable clothes and soft/dance shoes should be worn.

Cinderella is at The Marlowe Theatre from Friday, November 23 to Sunday, January 6. Tickets are now on sale from the box office on 01227 787787 and marlowetheatre.com.
