Young singers and performers: This might be the opportunity for you!

SINGERS and performers are being invited to audition for a forthcoming youth production to be performed at the Wormsley Estate in the summer.

Building on the success of last season’s Silver Birch, Garsington Opera’s expanded Youth Company is to stage a production of John Barber’s Eliza and The Swans, with Hazel Gould providing the libretto.

It is an update of Hans Christian Andersen’s Wild Swans, a magical tale of a young princess who has to rescue her brothers from an evil queen. This piece will be performed together with professional musicians and young players.

Organisers are inviting boys aged 9 to 13 and boys and girls aged 13 to 21 from Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire. who are enthusiastic about singing and acting, to take part in a fun workshop audition on March 24 from 10am to 1pm and 2pm to 5pm, respectively, in High Wycombe.
