Hoist the Flag of Fun & Mayhem

Shiver me timbers! The pirates are restless, yearning for a grand piratical adventure. "Oh, for a pirate party!" they proclaim. But, as any good pirate knows, a proper pirate party must be a stolen one. So now, get ready to set sail into the high seas of imagination as Margaret Mahy's delightful tale, The Great Piratical Rumbustification comes to life in a swashbuckling stage performance by Tim Bray Theatre Company.

KEY DATES: Thursday 14 March – Saturday 11 May 2024

Auditions: Wednesday 14 February, Grey Lynn Community Centre

We are auditioning for six lead roles. The audition will comprise of a scripted audition piece, singing a short unaccompanied song, plus a request to create and present a couple of short (15-30 seconds each) ‘piratical rumbustification party’ pieces – could be playing a handheld musical instrument (eg spoons, flute, drum), a short dance move, acrobatic or gymnastic move – two additional extra skills you would like to show us and add to the mix.

Additional to the six lead roles, we are also casting the show with three alternate performers to make a cast of nine performers.
