Hunt on for Stawell performers

Stawell Performing Arts Company is looking for singers and performers to join the cast of its ‘Best of the Worst Concert’, which will be on stage as part of a Stawell Performing Arts Fest in early September.

Last year the concert showcased some of the most loved songs from musical theatre and this year SPACi is on the search for performers to bring those characters ‘we love to hate’ – all the villains, bad guys and ghouls – to the stage in Stawell.

Concert director Tracey Erkelens said there were some great singers and performers in the community and SPACi was keen to bring them together ‘to put on a really successful show’. 

“The bigger the cast the better the show, so if you are ready to release your inner bad guy and want to step out onto the stage and deliver an awesome evil solo like poor unfortunate souls, or be a part of the cell block tango, then we want you,” she said.

Rehearsals started on Tuesday and will run Tuesday and Thursday evenings, as well as Sunday afternoons, until the Sunday show is on stage on September 8.

Anyone interested in joining the cast can call Tracey Erkelens on 0431 070 207.

Stawell Performing Arts Company is organising the Stawell Performing Arts Fest, a weekend of performance opportunities, concerts and workshops ‘for local people by local people’.
