PREPARATIONS for Angus Musical Youth Theatre's production of 'Our House (The Madness Musical)' get under way in the Webster Memorial Theatre, Arbroath, this weekend with the first information and audition evening.
The winner of the 2003 Olivier Award for Best New Musical, 'Our House' is an epic, passionate and fast moving romantic comedy following the life of 16-year-old Londoner, Joe Casey.
The 'Sliding Doors' type musical is in fact two musicals in one, e
ach following a different path of Joe's life after he commits a crime on the night of his 16th birthday: one where he stays to face the music with the police and the other when he makes a run for it, but only towards a very different set of consequences!
Featuring the music of Madness with hits including 'Baggy Trousers', 'It Must Be Love', 'Driving in My Car', 'Simple Equation' and 'House of Fun', the energetic show is certain to be a hit with both company and audiences.
Any young person currently within secondary school up to the age of 25 who enjoys singing, dancing and acting is welcome to attend Sunday's information evening at 7 p.m. in the Assembly Room at the theatre.
Auditions are scheduled to take place at 7.30 pm on the evenings of 16, 18 and 21 February within St Mary's Church hall, Arbroath.
'Our House' is scheduled to run at the Webster Memorial Theatre from October 19 to 23.
Angus Musical Youth Theatre is also looking for a choreographer for this year's show. Interested parties should apply by letter to enquiries@amyt.org.uk
