Young thespians wanting to be part of the next Coquitlam Youth Theatre Company can try out for a spot on Monday.
Place des Arts (1120 Brunette Ave.) is hosting a second round of call-outs this summer, on Aug. 27, for teens aged 13 to 17 to join the performance training troupe.
Directed by Susan Bertoia, Seamus Fera and Jennifer Gillis — a Gleneagle secondary graduate who appeared in the CBC-TV reality show Over the Rainbow — the company meets from September to June and hones such skills as dance and movement, voice and vocal techniques, and acting and character development.
Students are cast in two public performances: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (at Tri-City schools in January) and Dear Edwina, Jr. (at the Inlet Theatre in Port Moody, in June).
To book an audition with Place des Arts and request an audition package, call Jessie Au at 604-664-1636 (ext. 33) or email [email protected].
