    AUDITION - "Merchant of Venice" PDF Print E-mail

     

    Please spread the word about The Merchant of Venice.  We auditioned this play in 2013 during the Bundaberg flood, but unfortunately we were unable to cast the production.  It was decided, due to the extraordinary circumstances, that those members who had been offered a role, would be given the option of accepting the part when the play finally went ahead. For this reason, you should note that the availability of roles will be advertised at the information evening.

     

    Audition will be held on Tuesday 21st April, 7:30pm, at the Playhouse Theatre.
