All adept and would-be witches are being sought for next summer’s production of William Shakespeare’s Macbeth. And if you think there are three witches in the play, Chaz Davenport the director has a surprise for you.

Would you relish casting spells on Brownsea Island in Poole Harbour, entertaining and moving the emotions of more than 500 people a night?

Well-known in Ferndown Drama, Chaz brings tremendous passion and years of local Shakespearean acting to the production. No matter your level of experience, you can learn, grow, make new friends and enrich your life with BOAT.

On Halloween, all the Macbeth audition pieces go online. Each and every character is available and open to all.

Chaz’s advice when auditioning is to “be a hundred per cent yourself. Bring all of you and all your energy. Fill the stage.”

Make his decisions hard. Make him put you on the ‘Yes’ pile.

The auditions take place on 12 and 13 January next year.

On 31 October go to www.brownsea-theatre.co.uk for Macbeth audition pieces and details about the auditions.
