​

Anyone aged 12-18 with an interest in Musical Theatre can enroll for this project, you do not have to be a current member of Copper Studios

 Once you've enrolled the project begins with an audition workshop on Sunday 28th June where performers will be led in a variety of singing, movement, and acting activities to give creatives a picture of who will be a part of our incredible ensemble and who will play what role in the show. Performers will be given the full show script and be expected to learn the material before arriving at the rehearsal week on the 27th July. Based on this workshop our creatives will cast the production and keep all those involved updated via email before arriving for the intense week of rehearsals.

​

Rehearsals will take place at Copper Studios, 62 Arnold Road, Old Basford, Nottingham, NG6 0DZ

During the rehearsal week performers must bring their own lunch, drinks, and snacks as well as be dressed appropriately for a long day of singing, acting, and dancing.

This results in three performances at a Professional Theatre on 7th - 8th August including a matinee on Saturday to audiences of up to 150 per show. Tickets will be made available to the public once the show is cast.
