The Marion Art Center will hold auditions for its upcoming production of Lionel Bart’s musical Oliver! on June 7 and 9 from 3 to 7 p.m. by appointment only on those dates.

Call The Marion Art Center at 508-748-1266 to schedule an audition time on either date. Callbacks, if needed, will be held on June 14, beginning at 5 p.m.

All auditions will be held at Art Center, located at 80 Pleasant St. Those auditioning are asked to sing 16 bars of “Consider Yourself.” There will also be a short dance combination taught to determine movement and dance abilities.

Those auditioning for the parts of Oliver and the Artful Dodger must be able to dance and move well. For those auditioning for all other orphans and main adult characters, no dance training is necessary; however, those individuals should be able to move and pick up choreography quickly.

Direction is by Jamie Wiksten and music direction is by Cassandra Morgan. Rehearsals begin the end of August and the performances will be held November 3 to 6 at the Art Center.

Additional audition information, including an audition form, is available on the Marion Art Center home website page at www.marionartcenter.org.
