Hello Dolly anyone?

Fancy a week treading the boards at The Lowry as part of the hit musical Hello Dolly?

 

Hello, Dolly!, one of the biggest show stopping musicals of all time, is searching for a brass band to appear in the show during its run at The Lowry in Salford.

Starring Anita Dobson and Darren Day with a West End company of over 40, including live orchestra, this spectacular production will be at The Lowry from Tuesday 4th March for one week only.

Memorable

Hello, Dolly! is packed full of memorable songs and scenes and the lucky band will feature in the parade scene at the end of Act I. The band will be required to play while walking through the auditorium, helping to recreate the excitement and atmosphere of a genuine New York parade.

The chosen brass band will be needed to appear at all performances, including matinees, during the show’s stay at the theatre4BR

Appearances

The chosen brass band will be needed to appear at all performances, including matinees, during the show’s stay at the theatre. The band will be supplied with the music several weeks prior to the show in order to practise and must be available for rehearsal at the theatre before the show opens to the general public.

If you are a member of a local brass band and would like the opportunity to appear in this sensational show, please contact nicola.halstead@thelowry.com by Fri 29 February.
