Julian Light Operatic Society

Light Opera in Ealing for the enjoyment of all.

JLOS Auditions

We hold open auditions for our main show of the year normally in April or May. Both company members and non-members are invited to try for principal parts by singing and acting pre-arranged pieces of the show to be performed. The selecting panel comprises the director, musical director and a member of the company. Our usual accompanist Jan Cunningham provides musical backing.

Auditions are publicised on social media at least one month before, and audition pieces are announced at least 2 weeks before.

Joining the Group

Successful candidates who are not members of the group will be invited to join, and hopefully will stay for future productions. A show fee will be payable for those who do not join, but just come in for the show. Auditions are open to non-members of JLOS. There's no audition fee but you will have to fill in a form, please.
