Audition Search for Theatre Royal Stars
Wizard of Oz
Newcastle’s Theatre Royal
Tuesday 25nd – Saturday 29th
July 2017
Newcastle
Musical Theatre Company are hosting open auditions this January for a chance to
star in their 2017 summer production of Wizard of Oz at Newcastle’s Theatre Royal.
And they
aren’t just looking to cast Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tin Man and Cowardly Lion but
will also host auditions to find more than 25 munchkins for the ambitious
musical.
Following on
from this year’s hit performance of West Side Story, Newcastle Musical Theatre
will be taking the show, famous for songs ‘Follow The Yellow Brick Road’ and
‘Somewhere Over The Rainbow’, to the city centre theatre next July.
The show is
bound to be another popular choice, with tickets already selling fast, and there’s
even more to look forward to in 2018, with NMTC’s confirmation that they will be staging
Andrew Lloyd Webber’s world-famous CATS.
Looking to
attract strong performers with fantastic acting, singing and dance skills, principal
auditions for the roles of Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tin Man and Lion are open to everyone
and will take place Sunday 8 Jan 2017.
For those
interested in ‘smaller’ role, Munchkin auditions will take place Saturday 7 Jan
2017 and are open to anyone who is both 4ft 6ins and under at the time of audition
and aged eight or above by the 22 July 2017.
The audition
sessions will take place at Royal Grammar School Theatre, Newcastle from 9.30am. Anyone wishing to audition should email
nmtc@live.co.uk for further details of the day and what they are required to
prepare for the audition.

Tickets for
the Wizard of Oz, which will run at Newcastle’s Theatre Royal from July 25 – 29, are priced
