Mamma Mia! The Party holding open auditions

Mamma Mia! The Party open audition casting call

Mamma Mia! The Party is to hold open auditions for its upcoming production at the O2 Arena.

Billed as around five hours of entertainment, Mamma Mia! The Party includes an immersive theatrical performance, a mouth-watering 3-course Mediterranean feast and welcome drink, plus the chance to dance the night away to ABBA music after the show.

Producers are calling actors to an open audition on Thursday, May 2 for one of the lead roles, ‘Adam’. You will need to be able to sing, act and move just a little. An ability to play the guitar would be useful but not essential. See the full casting call below.

Björn Ulvaeus, Executive Producer, said, “We are excited to bring this new entertainment experience to London and we are looking to find a young male lead with a pop music background who has natural charm and charisma along with just the right amount of ‘cheeky’ humour. If you think that you are the right person and sing, act and dance, please come and meet us on Thursday 2 May.”
