DEADLINE FOR APPLICATIONS – CLOSE OF BUSINESS WED 8TH JUNE 2016 The Casting office will be in touch will all applicants regarding the progress of their application. Page 2 of 4 IMPORTANT INFORMATION • Please note that the children’s roles in Matilda the Musical have very particular height and vocal requirements. Should a child cast in the show mature beyond these requirements, they may no longer be able to remain in the production. • We are aware that some businesses have been offering workshops 'focusing on' Matilda or offering to prepare children for Matilda auditions. Please be aware that these workshops are not officially associated with the production, and therefore we cannot guarantee auditions will be granted to all workshop participants. Each applicant will be assessed independently. It is a preference of the 'Matilda' auditioning process that young people auditioning for some of the roles have no training or coaching on the show material, with the creative team preferring to work with children who respond naturally to what is needed or asked of them rather than in a pre-learned or anticipated way. This preference has been applied in respect of auditions for the London and New York productions. • Please note that auditions may be photographed and/or recorded as part of each child’s participation in or attendance at such auditions for casting purposes. Any recording made of auditionees during the audition process may be included in any future official Matilda production use, including but not limited to, a documentary, Matilda social media clip, film or program, news story or promotional reel, without compensation. • If offered a role, a child may not be able to be in the show if their school and/or Education Authority do not approve the child to be absent from school for periods as required. This approval will need to be sought by the Parent with the support of the Producer prior to the child being contracted for the show. A proposed outline of rehearsal and performance requirements will be outlined, so schools understand the time requirements of the child – please note, however, that production schedules will vary and change, and therefore flexibility is mandatory. Please note when children are required to travel away form their home base of PERTH, Travel Allowances and wage provisions will be provided per the terms of the Matilda the Musical Performer’s Collective Agreement. • Please note, children cast in the production will need to be available to go on tour to perform in proposed subsequent Australia capital cities following Brisbane & Perth and possible New Zealand cities. Children cast in the production will need to have a parent/legal guardian accompany them for the entire duration of the tour. The parent/legal guardian will be responsible for each drop off and pick up from work calls along with supervision at all times when the child is not at work. • It is the Producer’s preference that children cast in Matilda the Musical remain at their usual school throughout their employment on the production, however please be aware there may be key production periods either during rehearsals, before opening the show or during the season where it may not be possible for a child to attend their normal school due to the production schedule requirements at the time. During such periods the Producers may then choose to supply a tutor in order for children to be schooled at the workplace to maintain their level of school. The appointed tutor would liaise with each child’s individual school in terms of curriculum and work to be covered during this time. The Producers will appoint a tutor when the show tours and when the child is not residing in their home city. • We continue to work closely with the child employment departments in each State to ensure that we meet all the states requirements in keeping the health and wellbeing of the child first at hand. • We trust that you will support and accommodate your child’s requirements if cast in the production of Matilda the Musical. We believe working on a world-class production such as Matilda the Musical is an excellent Page 3 of 4 opportunity to provide a positive educational and life experience for a child. Should the child be chosen to move through the audition process, the producers will provide ongoing information to keep agents, parents and the child informed about next steps, and the requirements of the production. As involvement in the production will require school co-operation, family co-operation and a considerable time commitment from the parents and the child, it is imperative that a child only remains in the process with the full support and commitment of their family, school and agent (if applicable). • Matilda Australasia is a committed equal opportunities employer with responsible child safeguarding practices in place.

  • Music & Lyrics
    Music & Lyrics Music & Lyrics By following the steps on the site so far, students will have created their characters and begun to plot out their scene. The next step is to think how they might add music and songs. For students who are just writing a scene, this is still an exciting step to fully understand the process of creating a musical for the theatre. The activities in this section are aimed at students of all musical abilities. For some students, the activities may be part of an early introduction to music. Other students may be much more familiar and so able to tackle the extended tasks where listed. Using the Music Webpage: The films on the Music web page will give students a real insight into Tim Minchin’s process for creating lyrics and music. After watching his interview, students can play with the sound buttons on the site to start to build up their ideas for the music for their song. Songs don’t have to be set to music but using the buttons and taking part in activities will give them a good start for thinking about the tone of their song and what kind of music might suit their lyrics. The activities outlined in this resource pack are also accompanied by a film showing how they might be used in the classroom. The exercises aim to help the students write rhythmically and lyrically. The resources can also act as standalone activities that can be adapted to other forms of music in your school curriculum. Useful Starting Points: Getting the students used to describing different styles of music and understanding the function of songs in storytelling.

But Matilda has courage and cleverness in equal amounts, and could be the school pupils' saving grace! Packed with high-energy dance numbers, catchy songs and an unforgettable star turn for a young actress, Matilda is a joyous girl power romp.
