Man of La Mancha: Parts, Readthrough & Auditions

Awaiting trial by the spanish Inquisition author Miguel de Cervantes is imprisoned. Traditionally a new arrival is "tried and convicted", by his fellow inmates and "fined" all of his possessions. In his defence, which will take the form of an entertainment, Cervantes not only enlists the help of his most famous literary creation Don Quixote, but that of his fellow prisoners.

Readthrough
On Sunday 9 February at 11.30 for a midday start, there will be a pre-audition run through of the script and musical numbers from this show in the bar. Hopefully there will be a shoebox model of the set and the director will talk through his vision of the how the piece will be staged. We would encourage anybody with even the vaguest interest in auditioning, and also any techies or set builders, to come along and find out what its all about. The bar will be open from 12 and there will be nibbles to stave off hunger pangs!

Auditions
will then be held on Sunday 16 February and Monday 17 February as follows:

Sunday 16 February

Monday 17 February
