KATS will be holding auditions for "The Prairie" on SUNDAY, March. 15th, 2009 at the Longwood Performing Arts Center (2.00pm - 4.00pm). First come first served.

Please be aware that these will be selective auditions. Unlike the pantomime where we just write additional parts to accommodate everyone who auditions, we shall probably have to make some choices. Because the stage will be small, we may well ask a small number of actors to portray several characters each..

The performance will be at the Kennett Flash on the evening of Saturday May 23rd. It will be a reading - that is, you will not have to get "off book". We shall rehearse on Sunday afternoons and on some Wednesday evenings. We are looking for the whole range of ages and genders and we shall need at least two children (who will need to be able to sing).
