The Egg Christmas show is a two-act, physical production featuring songs and movement. Most actors are onstage throughout.
We’re looking for playful performers who are confident with their physicality and experienced in devising. Please note there may be some climbing and working at height in the final production.
We are aware that auditionees may have specific requirements. If this is the case please let us know and we will do our best to help to accommodate your needs.
We are working with composer Verity Standen to bring elements of this story to life through vocal music. We are therefore looking to meet confident singers. You don’t need any specific training, as Verity teaches everything ‘by ear’ rather than using a written score, but you do need to be comfortable picking up and holding complex harmonies. We will develop the music together throughout rehearsals, so experience of improvisation is also a bonus.
All roles can be played by actors of any ethnicity. Applications from performers from cultural heritages which are currently under-represented on stage in children’s theatre would be very welcome.
The Egg subscribes to the Social Model of Disability and welcomes applications from anyone who identifies as disabled. Please be aware that during the Christmas season, the route to our dressing rooms often, but not always, includes 45 steps due to a performances taking place in our smaller studio space.
