Hairspray is this year's show!

AUDITIONS

Nexus will present the musical ‘HAIRSPRAY JR’ in March 2020, the inaugural show, in our new auditorium! We would like to invite learners interested in playing any of the speaking and singing roles to audition on the following days in August:

Tuesday the 20^th (Years 5, 6 and 7) 3.30pm – 5pm

OR

Thursday the 15^th (Years 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12) 3.30pm – 5pm

AUDITION requirements

Song: (Clips of the songs are available on Youtube: Hairspray 2007)

If you are a female performer please prepare to sing ‘Good Morning Baltimore’

If you are a male performer please prepare to sing ‘Ladies’ Choice’

Script: (Scenes of the musical are available on Youtube: Hairspray 2007)

Learners should be prepared to read for roles, by knowing the characters in the musical. You can do this by watching the film.

Learners should be aware that if they are successful in their auditions, they will need to be available on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and will therefore not be able to join CCAs scheduled on those days.
