Actors, singers and dancers had better shape up – Bacchus Marsh needs stars for its next production.
Performing Arts Headquarters community theatre company is looking for T-Birds and Pink Ladies for its production of Grease, which will open later this year.
Company directors JohnPaul and Mai Pyin Cocking are encouraging males in particular to audition for the iconic roles of Kenickie and Danny, the latter made famous by John Travolta in the 1978 movie version.
JohnPaul said the company hopes to follow the success of last year’s production,
We Will Rock You.
“Audiences can expect all of those much-beloved songs –
Grease is the Word, Summer Nights, Hopelessly Devoted to You and Greased Lightning,” he said. “We are also looking to expand our on-stage pit rock band with additional wind and string players.”
Male, female, adult and youth actors, singers, dancers and musicians are encouraged to audition.
Auditions will run from March 1 to 9 at Impresario Theatre, with performances to take place in August and September.
