Working 9 to 5: Rugby Youth Theatre Auditions!
Rugby Theatre is inviting talented local youngsters to audition for its summer youth project, which this year will be the iconic show 9 to 5: the Musical.
Written by Dolly Parton, 9 to 5: the Musical tells the story of three workmates pushed to boiling point by their sexist and egotistical boss. Concocting a plan to kidnap and turn the tables on their despicable supervisor, will the ladies manage to reform their office – or will events unravel when the CEO pays an unexpected visit?
“Don’t miss your opportunity to be part of this hilarious tale of friendship and revenge,” says Rugby Theatre’s promotions director Wendy Kay. “With a West End creative team and a live orchestra, our summer youth project offers an unforgettable theatrical experience over the summer holidays.”
The youth project is open to budding actors, singers and dancers aged between 10 and 21, with participants putting together a high-quality show after just 10 days of intensive rehearsals, guided by a West End director, choreographer and musical director. For those who don’t want to be on stage, there’s also the opportunity to be involved behind the scenes, in props, scenery, lighting, costumes and more.
Now in its 26th year, Rugby Theatre’s youth project was set up to give young people access to theatre, and to help them develop skills they can take forward into their adult lives.
The youth project runs from 19 July - 3 August, and auditions take place on Sunday 23 February. It costs £100 to take part. For more information and to register interest, see the auditions page at www.rugbytheatre.co.uk.
