Every role is open to performers of any gender, and we actively welcome trans and nonbinary performers.
Singing or instrumental skill is welcome, but absolutely not a requirement.
Actors of all backgrounds are encouraged to audition; roles and additional musical flourishes will be assigned in ways that uplift each performer and strengthen the ensemble as a whole.
If potential singers or actor-musicians cannot attend the audition on Tuesday 20th October, they should send a video of their piece to the Director, Jazz, at jazzghazelwood@gmail.com.
Call-backs on 4th November may be used to help Jazz and Harry figure out how each performer’s strengths fit together, helping them shape an ensemble from the inside out.
