It’s August and the Kings Theatre Portsmouth is in pantomime mode. We would like to invite children to audition for Snow White, so if you can dance and are aged 7 years and above, why not come along? No need to register just turn up on the day. The auditions will be taking place on Sunday 10th September.
Candidates will be auditioned in groups and taught a short dance routine, so please wear suitable clothes. If successful, candidates will need to be available to attend every rehearsal starting on Wednesday 22nd November. These take place mainly after school and weekends.
Please be aware that this is a competitive dance audition and those who are successful will be chosen to perform as dancers in the pantomime. Please note these positions are unpaid.
9:30 am – boys and girls aged 7 and over with a maximum height of 4’10” to audition as babes.
2:30 pm – seniors boys and girls and over with a minimum height of 5’2”.
Being part of the Kings pantomime is a great opportunity. You will get to work with both professional and amateur actors and there is a huge buzz around the theatre as it is like no other show that is put on here. The pantomime runs for 4 weeks and everyone will get to know one another and be part of this timed honored tradition that has been performed at the Kings Theatre for many decades.
