There are still plenty of audition slots available for
Front Row Centre's production of FOOTLOOSE. So sign up now! http://frontrowcentre.ca/auditions/
Don't miss out on this opportunity to be in a great show!
While some of the leads might be called for all 4
rehearsal days of the week, many of the cast will only be called for a few
days. Sometimes even only once. So the time commitment for rehearsals might not
be as demanding as first perceived.
