Princess, a preened poodle - unfortunatley she would find it hard to pass as a Queen's Corgi
 | |
Move over popstars, karaoke kids can make way - it's time for the preened pooches to take centre stage.
The Theatre Royal is searching for a 'dog' star and the rewards are high - a dog, hand picked by the Queen could win a star's salary.
Roald Dahl's best selling children's book the BFG (Big Friendly Giant) comes to the Theatre Royal during half term from 2nd - 5th June.
The cast have their lines memorised but there is still one dressing room empty.
The producers of BFG are urgently in need of a suitable dog to play the cameo role of the Queen's corgi.
At the auditions the dog will be hand picked by The Queen, played by Verity Anne Meldrum.
 | | The Queen's Corgi. Not a wannabe. |
Unlike other talent competitions a good voice is not required.
The production is after a well bred Corgi.
A royal pedigree is not essential but a regal air will take the dog far.
Producers are after a docile animal, who's reasonably well trained to walk to heel. One that is used to people and can cope with noise.
The lucky dog chosen (and his/her understudy) will receive a star's salary in dog biscuits!
The auditions are being held on Tuesday 4th June from 2.30pm in the Len Meynard Suite at the Royal Concert Hall.
Any dog that fits the bill should come along to the Stage Door for the 2.30pm start. |
