Hi everybody,
Just letting you know that in the paper on Sunday there was an article about Disney's `the Lion King' being staged in Sydney. They are holding open auditions for anyone 16+ on Sunday 23rd June...at WAPPA from 9am to 11am.
Not sure on the full details but I'm sure there is some way of finding out.
Goodluck!!
Love Suz

You guys possibly know this if you continued reading after you posted your responses to the initial post...

The computer assigned the date to the posting...it's always correct. You're now 86 weeks late for the Perth section of the national auditions. I had a call back in Sydney in September 2002, and then again in January 2003, but heard no more after that. (At the last audition, I met a guy who was on his NINTH call back..!)


It only opened in Sydney last October. It'll be a long running show, and while they probably have understudies and a short-list of people who might be next in line, sometime down the track they're going to need to replace dancers and cast members who leave the show. Get your agent to keep an ear out for possible openings.


Hakuna Matata,
Craig
