2020 SCHOOL PRODUCTION AUDITION TIMES

Sale College Production of George Orwell's Animal Farm performed at the Sale WEDGE in 2018.

Audition times have been posted in the student lounge area – as well as on the window outside classroom 210. Due to the sheer number of sign-ups – year 10-12 auditions will be conducted in after school hours. If you have signed up you need to be aware of your audition date, time and location. If this time clashes with a previous commitment you need to come and chat to Mr.Kemp BEFORE the day of your audition to arrange an alternative time. All students must bring a completed "Audition Questionnaire" to their audition. If you have lost this form – collect one from Mr Kemp.
