Market Harborough Youth Theatre is acting to well and truly blow away the Covid-19 blues – by setting up their annual post-Christmas family panto.

The town’s popular theatre is now revving up to begin rehearsals for iconic timeless fairytale Snow White & The Seven Dwarfs.

So if you fancy treading the boards in the New Year and having loads of fun along the way then carry on reading!

The youth theatre is moving ahead with Snow White despite being forced to reschedule their production of The Adamms Family to June 2021 because of

the coronavirus.

Snow White & The Seven Dwarfs is due to be performed at The Welland Park Academy Theatre in January 2021.

And the first rehearsal, a workshop, is to take place on Sunday September 6 – with tickets going on sale in November.

The workshop will take place at The Woodcock Theatre Arts Building (opposite Harborough Leisure Centre).

Under-11s are being urged to attend between 2pm and 2.45pm with any over-11s asked to turn up from 3pm.

Auditions will then take place the following Sunday, September 13, at the same times.

“Current Government guidelines are being followed at all rehearsals.

“So young people interested in joining the cast must register their interest in advance by emailing [email protected] or by ringing Sarah on 07931391380,” said the youth theatre.

“So if you think you are an aspiring Snow White or you can fit the role of one of 14 dwarfs we need (amongst many other roles that are available ) then please do come along.

“We are really looking forward to meeting you.”
