Harrogate Theatre is looking for dancers to take part in this year’s Christmas pantomime.
The annual panto is always a huge family event in Harrogate and this year’s production will be Beauty and the Beast.
And the Theatre is asking school-age children to audition next month to be a chorus dancer.
Choreographer David Lee will be hosting a workshop audition on Saturday 22nd June, running from 1pm until 4pm at Harrogate Theatre.
A theatre spokesperson said:
“Whilst we are unable to offer any payment to pantomime dancers, this is an excellent opportunity to be part of a professional performing company and to learn about the commitment and skill required to be a performer.”
Young people of all gender identities who will be in school years 8-12 from September 2024 are invited to apply.
The spokesperson added:
“You will be required to take time off school so please check this won’t be a problem before you audition.
“You may also need to take time off from any extracurricular activities.
“Being part of the Harrogate’s favourite festive celebration is a wonderful experience and it is lots of fun but does require a serious commitment from you and your family.”
To register, anyone interested should complete an application form by Tuesday 18th June.
Paper copies are available at the Harrogate Theatre Box Office.
Beauty and the Beast opens at Harrogate Theatre on 27th November 2024. Find out more about applying to be a dancer in this year’s show here.
