AUDITIONS for the 2016 Stage Experience summer production, Oklahoma!, will be held at the Grand Opera House, York, on Sunday, February 28 February at 9am. This intensive two-week project for ten to 21 year olds will be directed by professional director and choreographer Louise Denison, joined by musical director Adam Laird for the first staging of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s most innovative show at the Cumberland Street theatre.

The project will run from Saturday, July 23, culminating in four performances from August 4 to 6. As well as budding actors, Stage Experience welcomes aspiring theatre technicians, who will work with the professional team on sound, lighting, set, props and costumes.

“The first show ever written by Rodgers and Hammerstein is guaranteed to be another blockbuster for our Stage Experience team," says producer Clare O’Connor. "This American musical has something for everyone – a good story, big songs, catchy tunes, dance routines and love interests – all of which will showcase the enormous wealth of talent in our cast and crew."

Application forms are available from the box office or by contacting Clare O’Connor on 01904 678702 or emailing clareoconnor@theambassadors.com. Please note, there will be a fee to take part in the summer project.
