ABOUT THE SHOW: Join Wendy, John and Michael Darling as they adventure into the world of Neverland with the mischievous Peter Pan as their guide. The familiar story you know and love, this will be a fresh take on the classic story of never wanting to grow up.
A PRE-AUDITION WORKSHOP will be held Sunday, January 7th at 6 pm. The audition workshop will take approximately 45 minutes and will provide some basic audition coaching. Youth will receive an introduction to the stage area, a few vocal & physical exercises, and a “pep talk” for how to prepare for their audition. Youth should dress comfortably and be well-rested. If you have never auditioned for Festival Theatre, we highly encourage you to attend this workshop! Parents are urged to attend as well. Please register in advance for this workshop at the Festival Theatre Box Office by e-mail or telephone (see box office information below).
WHO: We are looking for somewhere between 12 and 24 youth actors, ages 7 to 18.

Can parents/guardians watch the auditions?
In order to provide a safe and distraction-free environment for all participating youth, we ask that youth NOT have their adults along in the audition space. However, if it seems essential to be present, one parent/guardian may request to be present at the back of the theatre and must be completely quiet. Siblings or friends who are not auditioning may NOT attend. Requests must be made at least six hours in advance of audition.
