While Thomas Schumacher (President of Disney Theatrical Group) could not confirm a national tour for the production at the show’s official launch last year, he admitted that sending the production around the country would be “logical”. Successful applicants will be contacted by the Casting Director’s office and allocated a time, date and location for their audition. Due date for submissions is 15 March 2013.

Performers from all cultural backgrounds who are over 18 (as of October 2013) are encouraged to submit themselves for an audition. Round two auditions are scheduled to take place this coming April in Sydney, Melbourne and Auckland. “Vocally with the show, the male singers need to have a strong high A and female singers need an excellent belt to a top E”, Cherny explained.
Round two casting briefs have been issued for both dancers and singers across Australia and New Zealand. “This is round two, so it’s a more specified search”, she told AussieTheatre. “The show’s ensemble very much consists of singers and dancers rather than singer/dancers.” The production is set to open in Sydney during December 2013 and play an anticipated 8 month season at the Capitol Theatre, with rehearsals commencing in October.Ĭasting has begun for the production, but is by no means complete and Casting Director Leanne Cherny spoke with AussieTheatre about the requirements for all performers interested in auditioning.
