Huge well done to the almost 60 young people who auditioned for our summer musical WE WILL ROCK YOU.

The talent was unreal, and our creative team —
Director Caroline Bell,
Musical Director Alice Gildea
& Choreographer Katriona McNamee — definitely have a tough job ahead deciding the cast.

It was brilliant to see so many new faces, and thank you to everyone who travelled to audition.

A WhatsApp group will be set up shortly with all updates, including start dates and callbacks. We’ll also arrange a separate day for parents and anyone aged 18+ to complete image and consent forms.

It’s going to be an incredible summer.
