BRB's Nutcracker -opportunity for young singers

Post by Flosmom »

Hi
This isn't really an audition, but it is an opportunity for young singers to be part of the performances this winter at The Birmingham Hippodrome Theatre.

Birmingham's Ex Cathedra choir provides singers for this production including youngsters from their junior academy. The junior academy works on a project by project basis, so the choir comes together to rehearse for specific events. Their work is very high quality.

Flo has expressed interest in being part of this year's Nutcracker. I received an email today saying that they haven't received as much confirmed availability as they would usually expect and saying:

'if you know anyone that is interested in joining the junior academy let me know and I can get the necessary information out to them'

The rehearsals take place in Birmingham from late October and kids are expected to participate in 6 performances through the run, which starts mid-November and ends mid-December.

Although the kids aren't paid for their participation, they have to be licensed.

If you want to know more, feel free to PM me, or you can go to http://www.excathedra.co.uk and click on Education to get the link to the junior academy.

If you have a young singer who would like to be part of this, please let Ex Cathedra know as they are looking for a few more children to complete their ensembles.

The performances are at Birmingham Hippodrome Theatre with the Birmingham Royal Ballet. http://www.brb.org.uk/masque/index.htm? ... 9&tsk=show

They are about to start the licensing process so if your youngster is interested please email lizzie@excathedra.co.uk asap. If you have any queries, you can call Lizzie on 0121 212 9129
