Cameron Mackintosh announces open-call auditions in Manila for various upcoming global productions of “Miss Saigon”, the record-breaking production that is taking London by storm and opens on Broadway in 2017.

Auditions will be represented and facilitated in Manila by Bobby Garcia and Atlantis Theatrical Entertainment Group (ATEG) and held at the Opera Haus (3657 Bautista St., Makati City), in March.

“Miss Saigon’s producing and creative team will be flying in from London to hold auditions for various upcoming global productions of the hit musical. I look forward to working with them in discovering a new generation of Filipino talent to shine on the international stage in Miss Saigon the way Lea Salonga, Joanna Ampil, JonJon Briones and Rachelle Ann Go, among many others, have in the past,” says Garcia, who was also an Associate Director for “Miss Saigon”.

“We are searching for Kim, The Engineer, Thuy, Gigi and all Asian Roles in the musical. From leads to ensemble, from singers to acrobatic dancers, we encourage performers throughout the Asian region to come to Manila and audition for Miss Saigon.” he added.

Trevor Jackson, Head of Casting for Cameron Mackintosh, said, “Since casting for ‘Miss Saigon’ began in the mid 1980’s, the Philippines has been integral to the show as a place to find exceptional Asian performers of world-class ability. Our teams have been returning regularly ever since. Filipino artists are the heart and soul of this show.”

“Miss Saigon,” a sung-through musical, features music by “Les Misérables” collaborators Claude-Michel Schönberg and Alain Boublil, and lyrics by Boublil and “Closer Than Ever’s” Richard Maltby, Jr. with additional lyrics by Michael Mahler, based on Giacomo Puccini’s popular opera “Madame Butterfly.”

Audition requirements will be announced soon.
