TECHNICAL YOUTH CREW CALL-OUT FOR EVITA AT THE MILLENNIUM FORUM

The Millennium Forum is now seeking expressions of interests from 15-21 year olds interested in volunteering backstage during its summer youth musical production, EVITA, which will perform at the venue from Wed 29th July until Saturday 1st August.   This is the ideal and unique opportunity for young people to gain exclusive experience of working in a live theatre setting.

Chloe Harkin, Technical Manager of the Millennium Forum is encouraging everyone with an interest in Technical Theatre, to get in touch. She said:

“This is a fantastic opportunity for young people to work on a professional standard musical production. Whilst no previous experience is necessary, it may be helpful if those interested had some knowledge of Sound, Lighting or Stage Management and Stage Crew.  Spaces are limited as we want to offer the Youth Crew the best possible training and experience during the youth Musical.”

From the creators of Jesus Christ Superstar and Cats, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, comes a powerful and poignant story set to an unforgettable score. Join us as we journey through Eva Perón’s ambitious and often controversial life, from her humble beginnings to her remarkable ascent to power and fame.

Evita’ is a show like no other, featuring iconic songs such as ‘Don't Cry for Me Argentina,’ ‘Buenos Aires,’ and ‘Another Suitcase in Another Hall.’  With its compelling story and stirring music, ‘Evita’ has captivated audiences around the globe and continues to be a timeless classic in musical theatre. More recently, it enjoyed a London Palladium revival with Rachel Zegler leading the cast.

This amateur youth group production of EVITA is presented by arrangement with LW Entertainment Ltd. This project is supported by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland.
