Auditions for 'THE SNOW QUEEN', 12th November

Submitted by dramaqueen on Mon, 02/11/2009 - 14:30

LyneUp will be presenting the much-loved winter play 'The Snow Queen', by Hans Christian Andersen, rather than our more traditional pantos, during the first week of March 2010. For the first time we will be staging weekday matinees to enable as many schoolchildren as possible to see the play, and we are looking for a large number of children to play the many robbers and trolls, icegoblins and guardian angels, that appear. The main parts of Gerda and Kay will also be played by children.

Auditions will be held at the Red Cross Hall, Lintonbank Drive on THURSDAY 12th NOVEMBER, at 6pm for children (P7 upwards), and at 7pm for adults - there are up to 10 parts available for adults.

If you can't attend but would like to be considered (whether as an actor, or to help with costumes, scenery, etc) please contact Lucy Douglas on lucydouglas@btconnect.com / 660348.

Daisy Pulls It Off in the Graham Institute

Submitted by fwilcock on Mon, 04/05/2009 - 19:46

LyneUp's next production is a production of Denise Deegan's Daisy Pulls It Off... being staged in the Graham Institute on 4th and 5th September, the play is a spoof of the much-loved Angela Brazil/Mallory Towers schoolgirl books that many people will remember, in honour of 2009 being School Centenary Year. Simply splendid state schoolgirl Daisy wins a scholarship to posh Grangewood School for Girls, where she finally wins through, after battling against the sneaky Sybil and miserably Monica, to save the school. Auditions for anybody who feels comfortable in a gymslip will be at 8.15 in the Red Cross Hall, on Thursday 27th May, following a brief AGM at 7.30.
