A venue spokesperson said: "It’s so common for auditions for these roles to take place in London, and it’s not always practical for the talent we know our local area has to get there, and so we’ve brought the auditions to us for this role."

Auditions for the role will involve a group movement call, followed by a script and singing audition for those asked to stay after the movement call.
