They did it at Stirling a few years ago - I think it was 05. Christine Ellis directed it. Someone at Stirling would be able to put you in touch with her.

I went to the Auditions page to get the information for this- couldn't see it anywhere...can you point me in the right direction?

Auditions not happening til August
audition packages wont be available for a few weeks yet
let the producer get over her hangover from SHOUT first Dazza See you at auditions

Hi Dazza mum of tomato throwing kid here LOL

I have been doing a bit of research myself, and have come across, a couple of scenes on you tube. that a school did i think in usa.

Not bad, gives you some idea of songs, i just put in narnia the musical, it gives you the beavers, singing , and aslan the song thats the only help i can give you .

yeah still on a high with shout, it was a good show, and cast, see ya

Ok this hasn't happened in a long time... i think that I have just started foaming at the mouth and/or wet my pants at the thought of this audition coming up.

Narnia *sigh*

See you at auditions Dazza. (And can you be my friend when I get there - cos I'm so frightened about trying out for MPAC stuff - i know i know totally unjustified fear - but i can't not even try for this!)

Might even be able to convince Rebekah to come too.

Not sure who you are, skybe but rest assured, its great doing shows at manpac, thats what i like they make every one welcome, and in the end, you make lots of friends, have done several, just did shout so much fun, wether it be chorus or lead.

should be fun.

sorry i keep coming up as alias, its heather, but for some reason, it wont let my real name come up, so hence the alias.

yea i was looking for reviews to, but nothing, still they do say no news is good news, dont they.

I agree it can be very daunting, when turning up to an audition, and there are all these strange faces, and usually a lot of them are friends, since doing a show together.

but come on down, you never know till you give it a go,
paul, great job again, I was thinking of going for mrs beaver, so now you might change your mind ha ha , now i know that you are not scary ha ha

Hey Skybe, I know what you mean about things being a little scary at auditions - particularly if you're not sure on who you might/might not know there. But I'm pretty sure you'll find some friends - I think your lovely Galileo said he was coming down to auditions and there will undoubtedly be a bunch of others you know amongst the hopefuls. And just remember - auditioning at MPAC is no scarier than auditioning anywhere else. Everyone has just the same chance as everyone else and it's the same talent pool as the peeps who audition at MLT and MMD - MPAC just has that awesome stage - and of course our beloved Ms Lawrence, producer-extraordinaire!

As for the directing job - I'm going a little nanas waiting to hear. I hope, I hope, I hope I get it - but some amazingly talented people put in their EOI's this year, so it's going to be really hard for them to pick someone! But I do agree with you Paul - the large numbers of auditionees is much scarier for the Director - I remember feeling light headed looking at the sea of faces we had for Sleeping Beauty (but extremely excited at the same time - so many people there means people bring their absolute 'A' game and you end up with the best of the best) as I'm sure you did for SHOUT.

Anyway, directing the show or not, I will be there with bells on. This is one of my all time favourite stories and I can't wait to be a part of bringing it to life on stage - no matter what capacity I get the chance to, even if it's making coffees for the cast at interval *winks* Looking forward to seeing some familiar faces and hoping to see some fresh new ones - newbies are always welcome to join the family I say And yes Skybe, you should convince that sister of yours to come on down too!

Alias (Heather), Paul and of course Dazza...thanks for your welcoming words.

Just attended a 'Women In Leadership' course today and they kept saying that everyone has fears but the difference between someone who makes it (as a leader) and someone who doesnt make it (as a leader). The leaders face the fear and jump in head first. Long story short - I consider myself and leader in life so.......I guess I'll see you guys at auditions.

Narnia *sigh - again*

Well, I can now confirm that the audition date for this show has been set. Anyone interested in auditioning, I would suggest keeping Sunday 9th August free

Also, I was lucky enough to be advised that I have been chosen to direct this show (*jumps up and down whooping with delight and excitement*). I am now in the process of choosing some audition scenes and preparing the audition packs. As soon as we have all of that set I will post an audition notice - I should have it all ready to go by the end of next week. However, if anyone has any questions at this early stage, pease feel free to contact me via e-mail (bedlam34@hotmail.com or Darren.Bilston@kwinana.wa.gov.au) or phone (041 486 7721) and I will be happy to help you out.

Hope to see as many of you as possible on August 9th - let's go through the wardrobe together

Looks like I'll have to find someone else to be my friend at auditions as you'll be busy being Mr Director.

Congrats Darren. Sleeping Beauty was so magical to watch - hopefully this time I can be part of the show.

Hey DazzaB,

I'm new to all this and was put onto it by a friend but I wondered if you were also looking for backstage staff. I had a lot experience back in high school as backstage manager and lighting and stuff and I'd be interested. If you are looking, feel free to contact me.
