Do you have a secret desire to be part of a Musical Production? If you are 12 years or under here is an opportunity for you to seize!   We want to offer S1 pupils, 12years and under, the chance to be part of a production of Oliver! in the Beautiful surroundings of the Edinburgh King's Theatre from 3rd -7th March next year.   Southern Light Opera are looking for boys and girls aged between 8 and 12 years for our production and we would like to invite children from in and around Edinburgh to an audition at the Festival Theatre on Saturday 13 September.     Being part of full-scale production like this is a fantastic experience and our young members learn a lot about responsibility and gain so much confidence from the experience. If you would be interested in taking part register your interest by emailing; oliverauditions2015@gmail.com and if you have any questions, please just get in touch.
