AUDITION REQUIREMENTS An exciting playscript based on Terry Pratchett's best-selling novel Dodger. Dodger is a sewer scavenger who spends his days sifting through the murky underbelly of Victorian London. But when he rescues a young girl from a vicious assault, he begins to realise that things overground are even murkier than down in the sewers. As Dodger attempts to unravel the mystery of the attack, he finds himself ducking, weaving and dodging his way through high society with London's most famous literary and political figures. But can he find the attackers before they find him? REHEARSAL AND PERFORMANCE SEASON Rehearsals will be on Tuesday and Thursday nights from 7:00pm – 10pm, and Sundays from 11:00am – 4:00pm.
