Sophocles’

During the process for the first production of our course we explore the classic text of Sophocles’ Antigone. This intricate training prepares us for both the performance of Antigone and an understanding of how precise we can be with our Musical Theatre analysis throughout our ‘Bring It On’

process. This production enables us to grow as a company and undertake the challenges ahead in producing two complete performances in only three weeks. Antigone is a tragedy set in a city ravaged by civil war in 441 BC. The

central character, Antigone, is condemned to be buried alive by the leader, Creon, when she attempts to bury the body of her rebellious brother. The

play offers incredible opportunities for leading actors to train intensively and demonstrate their progression in performance.

Throughout the entire process, students will be stretched in all disciplines of

the performing arts, working with dance, acting and singing tutors for over

forty hours per week. All this work culminates in the production of a full scale

musical at the Arts Depot Theatre in Finchley. Following the success of last year’s

performance of ‘In The Heights’, we have opted for another musical that offers

opportunity to challenge our participants in all areas of their training; ‘Bring It

On’.

Bitingly relevant, sprinkled with sass, and inspired by the hit film, Bring It On

The Musical takes audiences on a high-flying journey filled with the complexities

of friendship, jealousy, betrayal, and forgiveness. Uniting some of the freshest

and funniest creative minds on Broadway, Bring It On features an original story

by Tony Award winner Jeff Whitty (Avenue Q), music and lyrics by Tony Award-

winning composer Lin-Manuel Miranda (In The Heights, Hamilton), music by

Pulitzer and Tony Award-winning composer Tom Kitt (Next To Normal), lyrics by

Broadway lyricist Amanda Green (High Fidelity) and was nominated for the Tony

Award for Best Musical.

AUDITIONS NOW OPENStudents interested in taking part on our fully funded three week summer course

will need to audition. While we are searching for talented young people, the main

criteria we look for are enthusiam, hard work and commitment. Our audition

workshops are designed to offer you the chance to demonstrate that you have

those attributes. We are not only looking for musical theatre performers, but also

actors that wish to improve on their vocal skills.

You will need to prepare a verse and a chorus of a musical theatre song and a

short monologue to perform in front of our panel. You will receive feedback and

advice on the day in addition to attending an afternoon of classes at the college.

Contact us now to arrange your audition and workshop session. Places on the

course are limited, so please apply early.
