Bugsy Malone open auditions

Open auditions for a place on stage version of the classic kid-gangster movie are to take place on Saturday, April 25, in the new purpose-built education rooms at the Theatre Royal Glasgow.

Registration to audition closes on Monday 20 April.

No experience is needed, just a love of musical theatre and lots of enthusiasm.

The company suggests wearing clothes suitable for dancing and trainers or dance shoes.

Following the auditions, places will be offered on the first ever Stage Experience two-week course from Monday-Saturday, July 20-August 1. Fee £200. For more info and to register to take part please call 0141 240 1309/10 or email [email protected].

This is the first time the course will be introduced to the existing programme. Led by industry professionals, these rehearsals will culminate in three live performances of Bugsy Malone on the Theatre Royal stage.

Funny, riotous and irresistibly charming, Alan Parker’s musical, with words and music by Paul Williams, is fun-packed and bursting with songs from the movie, including Bad Guys, My Name Is Tallulah and You Give a Little Love.

Bugsy Malone is an amateur production by arrangement with Warner/Chappell Music Limited administered by Boosey & Hawkes.

Rehearsals run from Monday-Saturday, July 31-August 1.
