Auditions

Auditions for this season's production of "The Merry Widow" by Franz Lehar will be held on Sunday 7th November. Full details of audition pieces will appear on this website nearer the time. It was decided to change the production as The Merry Widow has a better chorus content and is more in keeping with our 50th anniversary celebrations!

If you would like to be added to the mailing list to be notified of the auditions please email auditions@westlondonopera.org.uk and include a CV.
