SUMMARY:GREASE Auditions - Quebec Art Company
DESCRIPTION:Quebec Art Company (QAC) is holding auditions for Grease! \nBe part of Québec City’s vibrant English-language theatre scene!\nAuditions for the spring 2026 production will take place on September 7\, 2025\, from 1:30 to 4:00 PM at Holland Elementary School (940 rue Ernest-Gagnon). \nNo experience needed — just a love of theatre. \n— \nGrease is the word\, is the time\, is the place\, is the motion. Grease is the way we are feeling. \nAfter dazzling audiences with a string of top-quality musicals\, from Cabaret to Fiddler on the Roof to Hair\, the Quebec Art Company\, Quebec City’s longest-running English-language theatre group\, is staging Grease\, one of the most playful\, provocative and popular Broadway shows ever. \nThe wise-cracking\, jive-dancing story of working class youth navigating the challenges of growing up and making choices\, all the while befuddled by romance\, has won the hearts of theatre-goers since it debuted in 1971. And\, oh yeah\, there are those amazing songs. \nPerformances are slated for April 2026 with rehearsals to begin in late fall 2025. \nInitial auditions for the principal male and female roles will be held Sunday\, Sept. 7. If interested persons are unable to attend this audition session\, there will be other opportunities. \nNo previous acting or singing experience is required. \nDetails on the auditions\, which will be held in English\, are available on the QAC website at the following link:\nhttps://www.quebecartcompany.com/2-upcoming/auditions/audition-call.html
