Tommie Travers
Amateur Auditions
Two shows looking to cast for May and August
A production of The Rise and Fall of Little Voice at the Brunton in May and the world premiere adaptation of Stephen Fry’s Making History at the Fringe have put out open calls for amateur performers.
Sinbad the Pantomime
★★★★☆ Sin-good
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas as Sinbad sails into Musselburgh’s Brunton Theatre for the festive season. And with the Arabian Nights legend, played with gusto by Calum Barbour, comes a slew of familiar faces making up the supporting cast.
The Sound of Music
★★★★☆ Big sings
Huge performances, memorable staging and a strong message make Southern Light’s 125th anniversary production, The Sound of Music at the Festival Theatre, a fabulous night out.
Disney’s High School Musical on Stage!
★★★★☆ Class act
‘Get your head in the game!’ That’s the message of one of the big numbers in Disney’s much-loved High School Musical, and it’s certainly one the Kids From Musselburgh have taken on board.
Troy Wanted!
Casting call for High School Musical’s Troy Bolton
The Brunton Theatre, in association with Tommie Travers and David Ross, is on the lookout for a talented individual to play the leading role of Troy Bolton in High School Musical, the theatre’s 2022 Summer School.
Hansel and Gretel
★★★★☆ Sweet treat
It’s back! Oh yes it is. After Covid sent the 2020 Brunton panto online, the regulars are once more live on stage before a very appreciative audience. Hansel and Gretel brings festive fun back to Musselburgh, bigger and better than ever.
Rapunzel: The Pantomime
★★★★★ Towering achievement
The Brunton’s panto is a little different this year – Oh yes it is! Covid means the Brunton’s 2020 offering was filmed, with smaller audiences able to watch Rapunzel in the venue’s cinema. As it turned out, tier changes meant that plan was abandoned, but a web link ensures kids of all ages don’t have to miss out.
Brunton puts panto on screen
Rapunzel hangs out on Brunton’s Silver Screen
The Brunton Theatre in Musselburgh is determined to put on panto this year, so has created a film version of Rapunzel The Pantomime, screening in its cinema over Christmas – and available to stream online
Cinderella
★★★★☆ Oh yes it is…. Terrific!
It’s Cinderella with a touch of The Greatest Showman at this year’s fun-filled Brunton-produced panto, running through the festive season until January.
