This is a performance-based Summer School therefore demands a huge commitment and full attendance for every date listed above.
Anyone aged 12-19 with an interest in Musical Theatre can enroll for this project, you do not have to be a current member of Copper Studios
Once you've enrolled the project begins with an audition workshop on Sunday 22nd June where performers will be led in a variety of singing, movement, and acting activities to give creatives a picture of who will be a part of our incredible ensemble and who will play what role in the show. Performers will be given the full show script and be expected to learn the material before arriving at the rehearsal week on the 28th July. Based on this workshop our creatives will cast the production and keep all those involved updated via email before arriving for the intense week of rehearsals.
Rehearsals will take place at Copper Studios, 62 Arnold Road, Old Basford, Nottingham, NG6 0DZ
During the rehearsal week performers must bring their own lunch, drinks, and snacks as well as be dressed appropriately for a long day of singing, acting, and dancing.
This results in four performances at a Professional Theatre on 8th - 9th August including a matinee on Saturday to audiences of up to 170 per show. Tickets will be made available to the public once the show is cast.
Participation Fee: £230 per performer.
*The participation fee does not include meals or transportation, which remain the responsibility of parents/guardians.
There are two payment schedule options:
Option 1 - Full payment of the participation fee to be made on booking
Option 2 - £75 to be paid on booking. The remaining balance of £155 is to be paid by 22nd June 2025.

We’re committed to casting characters as closely as possible to their descriptions, particularly with regard to race, ethnicity, and religious identity. We want to showcase a diverse cast reflecting the wonderful people of Nottinghamshire and encourage applications from those who identify as part of the Global Majority, LGBTQIA+ community, and lower socio-economic backgrounds.
