Panto Auditions This Weekend at Kuwait Little Theatre



Don’t miss your chance to be part of this year’s pantomime. We will be performing “Dick Whittington and His Cat” – a thigh-slapping, singing, dancing, fun time for everyone!
Follow Dick and his clever cat Tommy as they fight the King Rat and his minions in London, explore for treasure on the high seas, perform for the Emperor of Rock-n-Rolla and eventually live happily ever after!
Auditions are this Thursday-Saturday, so make plans now to come on down and show us what you’ve got! We are looking for cast members of all ages and abilities for both principal parts and the chorus:
King Rat: male, any age, leader of the rats in London
Fairy Bowbells: female, any age, typical pantomime fairy
Tommy the Cat: male or female, non-speaking sidekick to Dick Whittington – needs good comedic timing and ability to act without talking!
Alderman Fitzwarren: male, 30+, shopkeeper, father to Alice
Alice Fitzwarren: female, 20+, Alderman’s daughter, love interest to Jack and Dick
Idle Jack: male, any age, panto ‘idiot’
Dick Whittington: male or female, 20+, panto ‘hero’
