Theatre company Rifco Arts are holding open auditions to find new singing talent. After the success of previous touring shows such as: There’s Something about Simmy, Meri Christmas and The Deranged Marriage, they are embarking on new projects and keen to find an older generation of talent.

They say: “We have decided that it is time to unearth the hidden talent that exists in Britain today. We want to find the temple singers, bhangra stars and Bollywood lovers who have always dreamed of a chance to perform for larger audiences than their friends and families.”

Are you 35+ with a strong singing voice? Can you sing Bhangra and Bollywood music to a high standard? Do you love performing and want to be involved with a highly acclaimed British Asian theatre company?

Auditions will be held in Slough on Saturday 10th May 2008 and are open to anyone aged 35+ who have completed an application form.
Get the application form from their website, call 01753 570 700 or email lucy@rifcoarts.com

Successful singers will be working alongside professional musicians and actors, rehearsing with a team including Harvey Virdi (Bride and Prejudice; Thunderbirds; Bend It Like Beckham) and Sumeet Chopra (Alaap, Shanker Mahadevan, The Dhol Foundation) and Robert Hyman (There’s Something About Simmy, Theatre Royal Stratford East’s Cinderella, BBC).
