Springer Scours Country for White Trash???Date: 8 March 2004 Jerry Springer - The Opera is holding open auditions around the country this week to find new talent to join the West End production from this summer. Open auditions were also held for the premiere of the multi award-winning musical at the National Theatre last year, the first NT production to ever be cast in that way (See The Goss, 9 Dec 2002). Show producers at Avalon say no West End experience is required – however, patience is. Hopefuls are advised to arrive early each day as only the first 250 can be guaranteed to be seen. After today’s audition at the West End’s Cambridge Theatre, home of Jerry Springer, auditions continue Wednesday at Manchester’s Dancehouse, Thursday at Glasgow’s Tron Theatre and Friday at Birmingham’s Hippodrome, all started at 10.00am.
