JUNIOR AUDITION NOTICE: Snow White - Allegory Theatre

- 3 min read
Title: Snow White (The Melodrama)
Presented By: Allegory Theatre QLD Inc.
Genre: Youth Comedy Melodrama
Synopsis: Brace yourself for a wildly wacky, anything-goes comedy melodrama bursting with over-the-top audience participation! This is definitely not the Snow White you remember. Meet a can-do Snow White with a tool belt, a Prince who can’t stop speaking in Spoonerisms, and a hilariously high-maintenance Queen who constantly demands advice from the audience (and never quite likes the answers). Add a mouthy Mystic Mirror who delights in tormenting the Queen, plus a bizarre band of former “dwarfs” - Bossy, Corny, Ditzy, Hyper, Klutzy, Loquacious, Silent, Trivial and Whiney - who are no longer dwarfs thanks to an inconvenient alien abduction. Expect nonstop slapstick, goofy wordplay and gleeful chaos!
