Liverpool’s LHK Productions are hard at work! As well as getting ready for the 2013 Christmas season when they will bring great family pantomimes to no less than three venues (Epstein Theatre Liverpool, Wrexham’s Stiwt Theatre and Knowsley Leisure and Culture Park) starring the likes of Margi Clarke, Lloyd Daniels, Paul Danan and Crissy Rock, LHK also present two fantastic musical theatre productions at the Epstein Theatre – Don’t Stop Believin’ and Bugsy Malone – by their Youth Company. LHK are delighted to announce audition opportunities for all these great shows, giving talented young people a chance of stage stardom as they throw open their casting doors.
The first audition takes place on Sunday 15th September at Epstein Theatre, Liverpool where producers are seeking strong male and female senior dancers (15+) to join the cast of the fairest show of them all, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs which runs at the venue from Thursday 12th December 2013 to Sunday 5th Jan 2014. A timeless tale and one of the nation’s favourite pantomimes, the show has a star studded cast, complete with song and dance numbers, poisoned apples, magical mirrors and that much loved panto enchantment. Those fitting the bill and who possess great technical ability with a commercial approach should come along to the Epstein Theatre on Sunday 15th September at 2:00pm. This is an open audition and dancers will be taught a routine on the day.
